Anyone got these and gone tubless already?

How many layers of tape did you use?

Easy experience or PITA?

Just wanted to check on the tape thing mainly before I start smearing them with fairy liquid and chucking sealant in.

Using Specialized control and grid 29er tyres FWIW.

I had 26er Tactic rims and were no problems tubeless. A couple of layers of tape and all good. Ran WTB, Schwalbe & Kenda. Only prob was with Contis which I gave up on in the end.

I've got a Sentinel, which is similar but narrower, and it went up very easily with a single layer of Superstar yellow tape and a Specialized Ground Control

In case anyone else is trying this, I'd recommend using two layers.
