When @Howard says tougher to work with than their traditional counterparts he means TB14's are rims for real men with strong hands. Very strong hands...
Howard knows a lot more than me about tubeless but I've read some tubeless ready rims seal a lot more easily than others. The Stan's I'm looking at are supposed to seal really easily, for example.
I'm sure that has nothing to do with the width and everything to do with the depth - the bottom of the dip in the middle is hardly lower than the bead seat.
Obviously never owned a pair of TB14's then ;)
