I converted my torker dx 24in to tubless about 2 years ago, I ride rocky, wet, rooted trails and street. If you are thinking about running tubless in my opinion is go for it. I ran between 30 and 40 psi of air in my tire before tubless and after i converted it i ran between 20 and 30 psi and it rolls alot faster.

yes... i imagine having tubs in your tyres would create a lot of rolling hassles....

Maybe you mean tubeless? ;)

I had my Coker tubeless for a while... it was a super pain to seat though. it took me, two others, an air compressor, 3 clown balloons (to spread the bead against the rim) and a removable presta valve core to get that sucker on there.

Now I just use a 29" inner tube for weight savings. I've never really incurred a puncture, and the tube doesn't weigh much more than the sealant i'd be running it it if it was set up tubeless.
