I know @fox has got a new set of tubeless veloflex now, will hear his feedback from them in terms of if they're any good.
Sorry missed the @ at the time. They're really good. I've done about 350 miles on them now and they're comfortable, grippy and work really well tubeless. No cuts I've noticed so far either.
I did have a problem with them going flat quickly, but it turned out to be the Milkit valves that came with my DT Swiss wheels. I replaced those the other week with Mucoff ones and they were instantly better.
Changing the valves meant having to unmount the tyres so I've fitted them twice in effect now. It's actually best to fit them without sealant - pop a tube in, pump up hard, loosen the bead on one side and take the tube out, then put a bit of washing up liquid bubbles around the rim/bead.
When I've done this they've never failed to quickly start holding air with a track pump and I can get them up to 100psi without sealant no problem, then add sealant when they're fully mounted. Or do it like the pro teams and don't add sealant at all, they'd be good for that...
Two reason, want to go tubeless tyres and the wheelset comes with mavic tyres.
I know @fox has got a new set of tubeless veloflex now, will hear his feedback from them in terms of if they're any good. If not I'll probably head down to gp5000 tubeless set up as they seem to be getting the best review for rolling resistant and puncture protection.
