Do you wanna "sea" Orange Seal???



After my race at Xterra Camp Eagle I had the opportunity to chat with Steve and Chris on a new product launched, formed in the place they crown "keep it wierd' based in Austin TX but is storming wildly across the US and in time im sure it will progress to an International stage. I am delighted to back this brand because for sure this is no ordinary product. The science goes beyond that of any other product of the same nature found on the shelf. 
On that note here is a preview.

Tire Sealant

"The days of using tubes in the tires of bicycles are quickly coming to a close. Tubes add weight and another item to the list of bicycle parts that can fail and leave you walking. With new rim and tire technologies, rim tape, and a good liquid tire sealant you can create a system that is lighter, more resilient, and better performing. Weight savings occur because tire sealant and rim tape weigh less than a tube. In the event of a puncture to your tire Orange Seal quickly clogs the hole and stops air from escaping thus allowing you to continue riding without stopping to repair a damaged tube. So if you haven't already made the decision to go tubeless now is a good time with a top product like Orange Seal you wont look back.

Orange Seal Formula
The liquid formula tire sealant uses nanotechnology and variety of solid particles of varying sizes that are suspended in a proprietary liquid solution. Without divulging trade secrets suffice it to say that multiple particle sizes in Orange Seal solution means that the product can seal larger punctures and seal them quicker than other tire sealants.

These failures usually come in the form of either clumping of the product, or its inability to do its job of actually sealing a puncture. Orange Seal performs with success in mind. Orange Seal is the new “Gold Standard” in tubeless sealants by being light weight and utilizing nano technology to help seal the toughest of punctures. Orange Seal can seal punctures that other sealants cannot. Our sealant is compatible with most bike tire systems and is eco-friendly.

" The bicycle continues to prove itself as one of the most efficient means of transportation. The bicycle offers an environmentally sustainable, clean, economical and healthy means of getting around. At Orange Seal Cycling we firmly believe in and actively pursue a Ride More approach to cycling.

Most of us spend a great deal of time stuck in our vehicles. That's time we could spend with our families, working, learning, relaxing or riding our bikes. To recoup that time, use less fuel, and showcase the power of pedals, Orange Seal Cycling commits to Drive Less.

Regardless of your reason for riding, when you get on the saddle, apply pressure to the pedals and glide down the road or trail you feel a sense of freedom, flying or perhaps a hint of your youth. We share that feeling. At Orange Seal Cycling we think bicycling helps people Live Better ".
