    Silly question I know 😉

    Using an old 29er Inbred with on-one 29er retard rims to commute with at the mo.

    Has anyone messed with cx tires & 29er rims?

    Or am I going to burn in hell?

    Ta.

    Yes. So long as your rims aren’t really wide.

    Stuck some Schwable Snow Studs (38mm) on those Retard rims without changing the inner tubes – not dead yet.

    Yes. I did it at the weekend and got them running tubeless on my 29er arch rims. They roll really well!

    rocketdog – persistence and bloody-mindedness are two of my virtues
