I'm going to treat myself to some fancy wheels & want to try tubeless. Does anyone know what I need to add to a set of Hope Pro3 SP-XC3s with Crest rims? Rim sealing strips, valves & sealant?

Thanks

Really you should just need yellow tape, valves and sealant.

Rim strips are for non-stans rims.

I have seen rim strips add to stans rims to help with the sealing however.

But presumably you are going for crest so you want light weight ?

So you should go for yellow tape.

I had some problems getting my Olympics to seal with yellow tape so I put on a second layer which seemed to help.

Thanks, you have saved me getting mixed up between rim strips & yellow tape.

Yellow tape and valves only on crest rims. rim strips are not needed.
