Easy enough on an arch rim in my experience

Mine were a PITA to inflate first time, but fine after that. Same with the CM.

That's on Flows, BTW.

Yep, as above not a problem in ages. Using FLOW EX, Stans Fluid, Stans Tape and TR Minions.
If your using Folding tyres and they arent Tubeless Ready bob a tube in overnight, remove in the morning that way it'll go up when you stick the gunk in.

Its a lot less hassle, especially round about now when the farmers round here cut the Blackthorn Bushes back.

Managed to tubeless used Smorgies that had been tubed for a few months but if new there'll be no problem.

I had to go to the LBS and use the compresser to get my smorgs to seal.
I am using mavic 717 and a stans rim tape though. Have held out fine though
Have discovered the smorgs need to be run at a lower (than I would normally) pressure.. They're 19/20 psi on my gauge. Any harder and they feel rubbish!

A good tyre and I use them myself, but worth noting that they are a loose fit and if you cut the tyre on a rock, chances are by the time you can stop the rim is ruined as it will have come off the rim when it deflates.

Done it on Stan's crests. Works well for me. Hold air really well. Pumped up in January for example and didn't need to touch a pump again for ages.
