Continental don't make a Protection or UST version of the Baron tyre.
I'm tempted to try and get them set up to run tubeless, on Stans Flow rims and with Stans fluid.
Anyone tried this and been successful ?
I hear that standard Conti tyres are pretty porous.
Thanks all.

Not quite effortless for me, they had some holes that wouldn't seal at first, I've had to put wee patches in all of mine I think and they took a few rides to get fully sealed. But once they're up, they're grand, and they mounted easily.

Oh aye and I'm a bit predictable on this but they're bloomin [i]brilliant[/i] tyres, like cheating in winter on the front.

Yes but they consume so much sealant that Conti's excuse of "they'll be too heavy" for not making a UST version is rather lame...
