Hmm, ok. I guess for the system to work the bead-rim interface needs to be pretty tight.
But there's a difference between challenging but possible to remove with decent plastic levers versus mole grips and a workshop being required. Or am I missing something? This would be my first foray into tubeless. I guess certain tyre/rim combinations can be more or less problematic.
At least with Hunt I could order the wheels and dry fit a tubeless tyre then see how hard it is to remove. If it's a no go under road side conditions then back the wheels would go.
