I picked up a set of Trail Kings "Tubeless" tires from the continental booth at Sea Otter this weekend. A 2.2 and a 2.4. I noticed neither while folded said Tubeless and I asked. The guy said he knows they are tubeless because he pulled them out the right...

Tube or tubeless tires? I've ordered a new 2011 Trek Hi-Fi Deluxe 29er and I'm thinking about having the tires converted to tubeless. Is anyone running tubeless and do you recommend it or not?

Beside the flat protection ?
I'm asking because I see the tubeless setup gaining popularity, but I guess flat protection isn't the only reason why they are better.
Do you get better overall traction, more control and tire last longer, etc ?
Otherwise ...

Just wanted to see if anyone else out there had gone Tubeless on the WTB Laserdisc Trail 29 wheels. I have purchased a stans all mountain 29er Tubeless kit (recommended because of 27mm rim width) but have not bought tires yet. I am looking heavily at ...

I have.
As for tyres, I have managed to get most tyres that I wanted tubeless done very easily.
Nobody? Well at least how do you feel about the Schwalbe tires? The wheels tubeless up easily.

Any experience with these rims? Can I throw in a rim strip and mount up tubeless tires? Any input would be appreciated

Fed up with flats - Time to go tubeless? Thorns on my favorite trail are costing me $6-$12 per ride, which is insane. I've already tried slime in my tubes, which didn't make a significant difference. Is it time for me to get a whole new kind of tire? ...

I'm going tubeless on the Hardtail everywhere.
I don't think you need to go all the way tubeless if you are just on roads and such, tubeless anti-tubeless...but my local trails are convincing me otherwise.

Hey all. I am attempting my first tubeless setup with my WTB LaserDisc Trail 29er rims, the Stans All Mountain 29er Tubeless System, and a set of Schwalbe Nobby Nic Tubeless Ready Snakeskin tires.
I have followed the stans instructions to the tee up to...

Its, or having a better rim/tire combo.
I had a similar experience to you:
Oh yeah, i don't plan to go back to tubes just frustrating getting things going right.
And go for some light tires with a ghetto tubeless set-up.

What are the smallest/lightest tires you have successfully set up tubeless on Arch's? I built a mostly parts bin 1x9 speed bike that will be used 98.99% on the street for hill climbing/training rides, cruising the boardwalk, fetching beer from the liquor...

Beware the pressure ratings if going.
A cx rim strip (liner not tape) maybe that would work w/ non tubeless tires.

Which version? How is it tubeless? How strong are the sidewalls? I had my only sidewall tear on a Rocket Ron and given the prices I've been tentative in going back to Schwalbe.
