Trek TLR Sealant Bike Accessory Specification

The Trek TLR Sealant is a premium bicycle tire sealant designed to enhance the performance and reliability of tubeless-ready tire systems. This sealant is formulated to quickly and effectively seal punctures up to 6.5mm, providing cyclists with peace of mind during their rides.

The sealant is ammonia-free, which helps prevent any potential damage to the tire or rim, and it is compatible with a wide range of temperatures, making it suitable for various climates and riding conditions.

The Trek TLR Sealant is engineered to maintain its effectiveness for longer durations compared to traditional sealants, reducing the frequency of reapplication. It is designed for easy insertion into the tire without requiring the removal of the tire from the rim, simplifying maintenance and ensuring a hassle-free experience. This sealant is optimized for use with Trek's tubeless-ready systems but is versatile enough to be used with most other tubeless setups, providing flexibility for different bicycle models and brands.

Additionally, the sealant is available in multiple size options, catering to different usage needs, from small personal bottles for quick refills to larger containers suitable for workshops or frequent riders. With its advanced formulation, the Trek TLR Sealant is an essential accessory for cyclists seeking to maximize their tubeless tire performance, offering a reliable and efficient solution to prevent flats and enhance ride quality.

What is Trek TLR Sealant used for?

How do I apply Trek TLR Sealant to my bike tires?

To apply Trek TLR Sealant, remove the valve core from your tubeless tire, shake the sealant bottle well, and use the applicator to inject the recommended amount of sealant through the valve stem. Reinstall the valve core and inflate the tire to the desired pressure.

How often should I replace Trek TLR Sealant in my tires?

It is recommended to check and replace Trek TLR Sealant every 3 to 6 months, depending on your ride frequency and environmental conditions.

Can Trek TLR Sealant be used with all types of bike tires?

Trek TLR Sealant is specifically designed for tubeless ready (TLR) tires, but it can also be used with tubeless converted tires. It is not suitable for standard tube-type tires.

What should I do if my tires still lose air after using Trek TLR Sealant?

If your tires continue to lose air, check for large punctures or damage that the sealant cannot seal. Ensure the tire bead is properly seated on the rim and that the valve is tightly secured. Consider adding more sealant if necessary.

Is Trek TLR Sealant easy to clean from rims and tires?

Yes, Trek TLR Sealant is water-soluble, making it easy to clean from rims and tires with water and a cloth or sponge.

Can I use Trek TLR Sealant in cold weather conditions?

Trek TLR Sealant is designed to function in a wide range of temperatures, but its effectiveness can decrease in extremely cold conditions. Ensure the sealant is well-mixed and check the sealant level regularly during colder months.

How much Trek TLR Sealant should I use per tire?

The amount of Trek TLR Sealant needed depends on the size of the tire. Typically, 60-90 ml (2-3 oz) is recommended for most mountain bike tires, while larger tires may require more.

What is the shelf life of Trek TLR Sealant once opened?

Once opened, Trek TLR Sealant can last up to 6 months if stored properly in a cool, dry place with the cap tightly closed.

Can Trek TLR Sealant be used with CO2 inflators?
