Even better when it goes up perfect first time
Then goes down between each use for a few times still sealant has done it's job properly

yeah. 20" tube cut down the middle and used as a liner. havent had a puncture in 2 years of using bar a split tyre on dh bike which wouldnt have sealed evne a tube wouldnt have worked.

front tyre on first time. see if it holds pressure.i am now tubeless. a part of me is still sceptical but im keeping an open mind as to whether its better. looking forward to my first tubeless ride.

I don't think it makes a huge amount difference tbh, the whole lighter part is marginal and same for the better rolling resistance
Lower pressure is usefull though and the amount of time all my dad and mates had punctures on the canals and iv not had a problem is good

yep im sort of expecting marginal differences.if its very noticable.....brilliant! if not, it wont take much to go back to tubes for the convenience

The difference is huge...and the convenience is not having punctures and pinch flats!
Jus remember the best thing to do is to over inflate the tires to 40-50 psi, shake it well, leave over night and re-set pressures...I used to run 24-26 (front) and 27-30 (rear) depending if wet or dry!
I'm hoping that you will notice a bit improvement to justify your buy, and not be disappointed!

gonzalo i'll not be disappointed with better hubs,spokes and better,lighter wheels.its always been my intention to get better wheels for the mega than the ones i bought just to get me going with it. my opinion will only be based on tubeless or tubed. i wouldnt want you feeling obliged to me for selling me better wheels.  |

Bit late to this party, but I use co2 canisters, never had a problem. My new wheels came with UST rim tape so I just popped in a valve poured in the fluid an inflated first time.
Only tyres I've had grief from with conti rubber Queens which turned out to have a porous sidewall
