Hi,
As the title, I'm debating doing it. I've done a few Maxxis and Scwalbe tyres successfully but don't want to commit unless I know of an other person who's had success with these bad boys!
Cheers
James

Yep, was no problem. Nor have any of the other Continentals I've tubelessed.

I usually wrap the rim a few times with gaffer tape or something to take up any slack in the bead. This makes it more difficult to get the tyre on, but once its on its not going anywhere, and I've never experienced any 'burps'

I'm going to have a go at this too.

I need 2 bmx tubes and some sealant is that right?

Anything that is known to work well??

I started with JRA Wheelmilk which seemed to work well but also seemed to dry out quickly.

Then started using Joe's No-Flats stuff which also worked well, seemed to stay liquid for longer but didn't actually seal holes very well.

Now using Stans, which I've yet to test with any holes, but seems popular.

Apparently you can make it yourself which is tempting given the cost of the above, but I can't be bothered TBH.
