Hi all,

Looking to shed some rotational weight.

Anyone using these on a trail bike?

Or are they really just for CX whippets on 20lb carbon jobs?

Nah, would rather stick with tubes.

Plus 1 for tubeless. If you puncture any advantage you might have gained will be lost. Grab some carbon wheels also works. Light weight tyres and tubes mostly fail

Ok.

I've ruled tubeless out in the past, but now thinking I should reconsider.

Carbon rims - pffft! May aswell.....
