What if I want something that I can bang a tube in and get rolling quickly though?
"I would fear unseating"
This tubeless malarkey isn't confidence inspiring.

Of course it was not my intention to pull the valve through Malcolm! But that is what happened. Second go-around with fresh double wrap of VAR 21 mm tape did not seal either so that's one very nice wheel sidelined until I summon the resolve to try again.

IRC back in the country. just unpack quite alot of tyres. Yes IRC tyres are a tight fit which is why I never suggest users carry a tube. fix the tyre externally and those fix can be permanent and the fix works.
Harmanmogul you not meant to pull the valve through the rim! I am suspious of any tubeless tyre that is an easy fit as I would fear unseating. It will be interesting to see how the mavic UST rims fair in the long run.
