Does tubeless, specifically ghetto tubeless (homemade rimstrips and Stan's) work well when it sits for extended periods? Like during winter when a bike may not move for weeks/months at a time? I'm asking cuz it's that time of year for me, more time off at work and less time on the bike (heck, I don't even have a fork right now), so I like to play around with my setups. I was thinking of going tubeless with my own setup, just for fun. My XC superlight tubes worked well this year and made a noticeable difference in accleration, but failed pretty bad in the microscopic thorn puncture department, which got expensive. I'll use regular tubes if need-be, but for now I'll play.
Should I wait until just before spring riding time comes to try this tubeless, or if I top my tires off and spin them every 1-2 weeks will that be enough or do they need to be ridden/spun every couple of days? Thanks.
