Want to fit tubeless tyres to a pair of Shimano tubeless 29er wheels. First Choice was Spesh Captains, but the S works I have tried are too big for the rims and are not badged as 2Bliss. Don't want to faff with rim strips as the rims are tubeless (I know I need sealant).

Do Captain 29ers come in 2Bliss or do I need to rethink my tyre choice.

Most of my riding is on Cannock Chase so Fastracks and Captains work for me summmer/winter. Any other recommendations?

Slowly backs away from the PC.

Just fitted a pair of 2.25 Bontrager 29-3 tyres to my 29er hardtail. Raced coed y brenin this weekend and have done the marin and penmachno today on them and they are awesome. Great high volume tyre and super grippy. They are tubeless ready so will go straight up on those rims.
Cheers

Wot they said - 29er specific tyres makes a big difference imo

Maxxis Ardent 2.25s work well tubeless and nice thick sidewalls too.

Like the sound of the Bonty 29-3s though they look a bit pricy.

Chunkypaul - Am I right assuming the S-Works Captains would have the 2Bliss logo on the tyres and packaging? I think I have been sold a dud as the ones I have don't have the 2Bliss logo on the side.
