  • Stans Arch rims and Bontrages tubeless tyres – anyone running this combination?

    Just checking this is going to be okay before I buy some new rims.

    I have managed okay with Bonty tubeless tyres and quite a few rims – Mavic 519, 517 and Bontrager's own rims. However I failed to even mount them on DT 5.1s, so just wanted to check I won't run into same problem with the Stan's Arch rim.

    So anyone running this combo ok? Cheers

    just been out & had a go for you – can get a mud-x tubeless ready onto a flow very easily (looser than I'd like, if anything)

    I assume the outer diameter's the same for flow & arch ?

    Ringo – magic, rimstrips or tape?

    I've run and raced Bonty ACX on Stans 355 for a few months now, no concerns.

    Rimstrip, this was the first time I have tried tubeless I couldn't believe how easy it was

    You could probably do it with just the tape, I'm going to try that next.

    Been using Arches with a variety of Bonty tyres for the last couple of years with just yellow tape – no problems at all with inflation or staying seated.

    I have a front Arch/Progress wheel for sale if anyone's interested.
