    does anyone do them????

    can only find 700c ones.

    have enough trouble getting plain flavour 29’er tubes so i’m temporarily stretching 26″ tubes onto 29 wheels.

    is it going to be a DIY tubeless job?
    If so any recommendations?

    JRA have a normal 29er Schwalbe tube. Could get the Schwalbe ones with removable cores and squirt some slime in?

    Though tubeless is much nicer and better, IMO.

    Run tubeless tyres thus bringing the advantages of a slime tube without the tube. Clever eh? Making your 29er wheel heavier at that point is not a good idea.

    I like my tubeless tyres (on another bike) but I’d need new rims and they are a pain in the arse regarding changing tyres (as I need to do, living in the Chilterns and going elsewhere to ride quite a lot).

    i’m no racer so not bothered by a little extra weight, but do hate punctures – especially now its starting to get all muddy.

    Sludge… goes in through the valve… adds 50g per wheel.

    Used it on my winter road bike and so far i’ve been flat free.

    Search it on ebay as I was given my tube of it so unsure where to buy it.
