@randyharris: Two ounces or a bit more in a tube. Four ounces in a tubeless tire.

GT,

How many ounces/ml do you add to a 29er tube? and how many ounces/ml to a 29er tubeless?

Thanks

C Cow: In a static state, Caffelatex is a liquid that looks not unlike paint. When it is agitated, as inside of a tire carcass, or tube, it foams, much like soapy water. 250ml bottles of CaffeLatex go for $13.95 U.S.

It doesn’t taste good, by the way, believe me.

If the caffelatex does foam up inside the tire, why would it not foam up inside a deflated tube, causing an “inflated” look? Or does it foam up only when reacting with a certain amount of air?

How much does this stuff cost?

What does it taste like?
