if is leaking around the valve hole then try and tighten up the lock ring on the valve stem to seal it tighter, also check that there isnt any little bits of tape interfering witht he valve hole,
my AM classic valves leak on my AM classic rims a little on the rear, but stans seems to seal it okay! ;-)
if you dont have a valve core remover key then a spoke key is pretty close, close enough to be able to get it tight enough when putting it back in after pouring the fluid through the valve stem,Timmo.

I've tried pushing in the gasket and doing up the lockring pretty tight but it's still leaking over 35psi. I'm gonna have a closer look at it now and see what's up. Good idea on the spoke key front, though I've a core removing tool.0

The rubber bung on the end! Someone called it a gasket once, I assumed he was correct... Anyway, I've pushed it in firm enough to deform the bung so it's in pretty tight. Still leaking. Ho hum.0

Hmmmmn, bummer, I'd be tempted to pop em upto 40ish+ psi and check how tight it is then, then leave it all how it is, deflate, pop some stans sealant in and whack it back up to pressure!Timmo.

Four pages of tubeless faffing so far. How many before tubes become the sensible option?I don't do smileys.
