• I'm sure I've asked this before, but any recommendation for a proper mud tyre compatible with tubeless rims.

    I'm running Michelin Mud 2s which are fine in intermediate conditions, but now it's properly wet I want something with a more aggressive tread. I've got a pair of Bontrager CX3 but hell will freeze over before they go on my Iron Cross rims. I've just received a pair of Vittoria XM but the tread is not as aggressive as I wanted. Anything else? I'm tempted by the Specialized Tracer 2Bliss but am concerned they won't go on my rims.

    Maxxis Mud Wrestler might be worth a punt, maybe the Challenge Grifo clincher - we have some running with tubes and they look very aggressive. maybe mount the front in reverse for extra. Haven't tried them tubeless though so do a bit of research first if you like the look of them.

    Research says no. Too leaky.

    Lolz "If you are considering tubeless as you seek better performance and a more comfortable ride than your current vulcanized clincher, please consider the use of a handmade Open Tubular tire, which has a higher ride quality and shares many of the same benefits. Higher thread counts and flexible, natural rubber provide a tire that hugs the road, inspires cornering confidence and reduces the amount of road vibration that reaches your body. Tubeless tires typically take a traditional, bouncy, vulcanized clincher tire with less grip and reduced comfort.
