[#11324852]

As above, the boys new (to him) bike has tubeless ready rims but previous owner has drilled them out for schraeder valves.
Are there any options to revert to tubeless setup?

Just buy schraeder tubeless valves... Work just as well as presta.
I've got both types on various bikes

Is it 26in?

I believe I have some Stans rim strips with schraeder valves in the garage, unused.

I prefer Schrader valves for tubeless as the small Stan’s bottles fits perfectly in the end And they’re wider so less likely to get gunked up.

It could be because I always run ghetto tubeless with BMX tubes as well.
