Because they were free 🙂 Have had them a few months, they work well. I didn’t bleed them myself, let one of my workshop colleagues have that pleasure (didn’t look particularly arduous though)
Very well indeed. Have done 4 races this season and no issues.
what kind of pressures are you running?
About 24psi on my pump. I’m rather fat (90+kg) so wouldn’t really want to go much lower. On my local rocky trails then I run about 40psi (used to run 70psi with tubes and still got pinch flats. I’m clumsy as well as fat!)
I feared when I clicked this I’d have to rant about CX bikes not having mud guards, panniers and generally commuter crap. But no, we have a real CX bike, with a proper CX chainset, proper tyres and no unnecessary paraphernalia. It’s great to see and it’s a lovely looking bike.

Splitting hairs it’s still not got tubs 😉
They are sorted frames crocketts. Really good mud clearance and no chainstay brace on a race frame. It’s s ruddy miricle.
I used to run tubs (Terra Pros) but for a fat knacker at the back end of a cross field there’s no disadvantage to me running tubeless. In fact, I think it’s better as I’m certain that I’m less likely to puncture. I can also happily use the same wheels/tyres for any other riding I do on the bike 🙂
How did you find the fit of the Terra’s on the crests please? Need to replace my Hutchinson Toros which are silly tight to fit and a bit of a pain.
They went on really easily and pumped up first time without any sealant.
That cable inner must be nearly long enough to drag along the ground!
I know! Will sort when I can be arsed 🙂
