Just wondering if anyone has seen this before?
I've got a set of Roval traverse SL carbon rims on my 2013 enduro. I run em tubeless with Stans sealant.
I was washing the bike after a ride tuther day and as the rear wheel was free spinning whilst in my stand I hear a rattling noise from the back wheel. I think maybe the sealant has dried up into balls so remove the tyre to find heaps of liquid sealant and no dried up balls. Then, when I shook the rim I hear the same noise and it's obvious that there is something going on inside the rim. So, out comes the valve and then I starts shaking little black balls out of the valve hole. These balls are easy to squash between fingers and they look like balls of carbon dust.
Anyone else come across this?
