...tubeless for being so simple.

Just did my first conversion using a Maxxis Minion DHF 2.35 SPC Kevlar (722g FYI)/DT E540 combo. Couldn't have been more simple.

Didn't need tyre levers at all to get the tyre on and seated it using just a track pump! Never pumped that fast before!!

Had to push tyre down over valve hole to get air in but got there in the end.

For what its worth, i covered the rim strip in barely watered down car shampoo and tyre bead also. Tyre just slipped onto rim. Thats the first time i have ever managed without levers.

Thanks for info given on previous postings, just need to do rear now.

Went with Just Riding Along Wheelmilk in the end as i was getting the tubes from them also.

Not sure how long it'll last. Time will tell.
