I'm toying with the idea of ghetto-tubeless for my cx bike, but I'm wondering if a larger tyre such as a 40mm and a latex tube might allow me to get away with the pressure I want.
30psi front and ~35-40psi rear is what rides well and I think will be ok for racing even in the dry but if I ride mtb trails then rocks (and pinch flats on the front) are never far away.

I'd be interested to hear people's thoughts.
