Has anyone tried it and what did you use? Ghetto or Stan's kit?
I have a Boardman Pro 29er with the standard 319 rims and currently wearing the OE MK2s.

did it yesterday!

3 runs of 19mm 3M crossweave tape
these valves - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mountain-Bike-Road-Bike-Presta-Tubeless-Valves-Red-Blue-Black-For-No-Tubes-/291784361573?

and no problems.

My issue is how to convert the front hub from 15mm to QR.... 🙄

Where did you get the tape Reggie? I have tubeless valves in my spares box....
What tyres are you using?

Use Gorilla tape, it's just as effective and easy to find at places like B&Q

I did it with Gorilla tape from halfords and this pinkbike guide. Worked a treat.
