If panaracer can make 32c gravel kings tubeless for sim works, why can’t they sell their own??
I’ve just received some 35c g-one allround, replacing 28mm pro-one as got a rather nasty flint through the rear sidewall on one of them. I now have snow outside my front door so i’m not sure how much i’ll actually be able to use them before spring though.

I'd presume they will soon.

But they aren't "officially" tubeless compatible, which makes me think there must be something different?

well those Sim Works are kind of the same, Sim Works them selves say about their tyres:
"A lot of people might wonder if this tire can be compatible with tubeless or not?
To tell you the truth, our answer will be “WE HOPE SO”. The reason is that there are 2 regulations in this tubeless tire world such as β vs VHS kind a stuff. We really don’t know how exactly will fit perfectly or slightly fit into these things." -

I've got a pair of Sim Works Hommage, they've got a thick flat edged bead like a tubeless tyre should, but I haven't mounted them as I'm still waiting for my bike to arrive to put them on.

I've had Homage tyres tubeless for a year and a half without any issues.
The bead on 28mm gravel kings is exactly the same.

I'll be at 450m altitude in Switzerland this weekend. Probability of cycling relatively low. On the upside, it looks like Verbier's open for business, so it's not all bad.

What’s the catch?
People in the café will laugh at you because you have last years HDF5.3 compound, not the latest ElevenStorm.

IRC RBCC on DT Swiss R24 Spline inflated with a hand (not track) pump!
Using the DT Swiss tape that came fitted to the wheels and their valves together with IRC tubeless tyre levers.
Piss of piss.

Impressive! Those IRC levers are very handy, and not just for tubeless.
-

Tubeless is the only time I need levers: my thumbs are like small people in their own right.

Double piss
Yeah, twice as easy as "a piece of piss".

Have Schwalbe updated the carcasses of the Pro 1 to actually be true to size? I've just bought some 23s assuming they would go up to 25 on modern wide rims like they have in the past (my 28 measures~30), but these are only showing ~23.5
