Sealant turned to a giant chunk over the life of the tire. How did this happen? I'm running vittoria mazxa tire with their emtb liner and orange sealant. It weighs 54g!
Sealant naturally coagulates over time. Doing regularly refreshes and cleaning of the system prevents this. I find if the bike is being ridden often (wheels getting more rotation) you don’t coagulation as fast.

1) how often do you replace sealant?
2) it looks like the insert was pinched/torn at some point and the sealant started to coagulate on that

Liners are fake news anyway
Why am I suddenly craving a loose meat sandwich?
