WTB weren't hard to set up. One of them wouldn't stay up and that was fixed with new tape.
Panaracer went up fine on one wheel but on the other wheel it also needed new tape, which let go and got new tape, which didn't hold air over night, so then got wider tape and was fine. (I stupidly didn't bring my wider tape to Spain before the race, thinking the 19mm Tesa would suffice).I got a brand new set of 47mm 650B WTB Ventures ready to go on when I wear out these Horizons. I would've preferred something even wider but these were an emergency purchase in case the 700x50 Panaracer setup failed again (it didn't, they're still holding air just fine).

Panaracer and WTB are old tubeless, they’re noticeably harder when compared to modern type (like Teravail which inflate and hold without sealant).
Would you like me to send you a modern 650b gravel tyres that easy to set up?
