Not convinced on tubeless at all.
Worst case you rip a side wall, you still need a tube.
Coming from the world of DH racing, the pro's would run tubeless tyres to keep sponsors happy, most would actually run a tube in the tyre as "burping" could drop pressure enough to rip off a tyre off mid race run.
Gone full CSI, never go full CSI,
wait wrong movie quote to tv series........ :)
Single pin prick to tube near valve. After a full check inside the tyre, no poke throughs. After a full check on the tread, pulled 2 thorns that never went through to tube.
Quite happy that Rollins real life commute won't involve riding off camber mud banks covered with brambles, a single stick on patch and tube has been inflated for hours.
Happy with tyres :)
