What You Need to Survive Outdoors

Why I practice bushcraft & survival

I'm a keen camper, but I'm certainly not as hardy as the likes of Ray Mears or Bear Grylls. For me it's fair weather all the way.

But a few of my tougher camping buddies were discussing what they would need, as a minimum, in order to spend a few nights outdoors at this time of year in the UK (its springtime and still very cold at night).

Stans 29er No Tubes Conversion Kit

Stans 29er No Tubes Conversion Kit

Stan's No Tubes started a revolution a few years ago with it's Tubeless Conversion Kit. This kit converts your existing 29er wheel set to a tubeless system, allowing you to run a lighter set up with less rolling weight and also allow low tire pressures that you wouldn't even dream of running with a standard tube set up. The sealant in the tires patches punctures while your wheels are spinning, allowing you to ride and race without the worry of having to stop to change tubes. Includes: Two molded rim strips with Presta removable valve cores, one pint of Tire Sealant with a 60g scoop and spout, one 10 Yd roll of spoke tape and detailed instructions. FOR 29" WHEELS.
