Tubeless Schwalbe Ones now installed. Front went on easily, rear was refusing to seat with only a track pump. Called my LBS Neil's Wheels in Kingston to borrow their improvised charging chamber (a 2l coke bottle with a couple of valves so you can pump up the bottle to 50psi and then unleash the large volume of air in one go). They said "sure, but try just pumping without the valve core. And presto job done.
Sealant now in the tyres, shaken around and no bubbles.
Now just waiting for appointment with @scherrit to get fit dialled in. It's his fault I am getting married, I thought my now fiancé's dog was Fettle his hound at West Drinks a few years ago, instead it transpired that the viszla was Olive. So I mistakenly started trying to interact with Olive which then allowed me to start a conversation with my wife to be. The bike is an engagement gift.
