My enduro mountain bike. We are talking about bicycles in this discussion, are we not? I suppose I can’t speak to anyones experience but my own but I used to get a lot more flats on tubed setups. Now the only time I get a flat is when I’ve broken a wheel
I usually run around 35psi (2.41 BAR) front and rear but I’m also kind of a giant who destroys rear wheels too often.
Currently on a Spank Race 33 rim and Vittoria Syerra’s for tires. The Syerra’s are really cool. They have really good rolling resistance. They aren’t the best in cornering grip but I find its really easy to ride them on the ‘edge’ of their grip if that makes sense. I also run cores in an attempt to prevent breaking more wheels
Sorry, but tubes are significantly better for off-road performance. What do you off-road?
Edit: I can’t really say why I wrote this comment like this. Very aggressive. Sorry again.
Pinch flats are way more likely when running low tire pressure off road. That does not happen with tubeless setups.
Yeah sorry, I’d meant that -in my experience.
I’d had issues with loss of air on hard turns or losing the bead more often. I wonder if the model of rim was poorly designed.

I’d only meant in my own experience. Sorry about that. I definitely wrote that comment as an asshole.
What pressures do you run in your tubeless setup?
Any specific rims or style you’d recommend?
