After fitting Teravail Rampart with tubeless, it a hella lots of fun.
The geometry on paper is very slack (70.5 head tube with 50mm rake), but it felt much more alive with the 650b that it's build with in mind, even when I have to fit 120mm stem on it (!!) to get the reach right.
The original 50c tyres were 670g each with 225g inner tube, which much to my amusement, was fine.
Obviously better tubeless naturally.
