failed at trying to fit the Knard sans tube
I tubelessed up my Knards (fnar) on Rabbit Holes using one layer of 50mm wide electrical tape, then the Surly strip, then a split tube, then lots of goo and a compressor. I'm not sure what the electrical tape does, but omitting it resulted in a tyre that wouldn't hold air overnight.

Got my Kris Holm laced up over the weekend but failed at trying to fit the Knard sans tube today.
I presume the tyre has been at the bottom of a big pile as it likes to sit very flat ie with the beads together and a fold in the centre of the tread.
I'm hoping that once it's been inflated and ridden for a week or two that it'll hold it's shape a bit more and thus will seat more easily.
