I'm giving the Pirelli tires a shot.
Bike parts aren't cheap anymore.
I just mounted a pair of Roubaix 2Bliss tires on my Tarmac. At $40 a pop I can go through 3 sets of them for 1 pair of Contis.

my p1s also got some deep slices in them. I tossed and am running tubes on some old Vittoria Open Paves which are just about worn.
So I bought some GP5k tubeless. Hopefully I can get them on my Dura Ace wheels

How difficult are they to mount?
That's what is keeping me running tubes at this point; way too many stories of the countis and other tubeless road tires being next to impossible to get on the rim
Challenge; Saguaro TNT on a Stans wheel? Or one of those WTB TCS on a Stans wheelI can get any tubeless tire on any rim without any tools.

Those are pretty much the easiest rims to mount tubeless road tires to.
I was going to post this. It’s gotta be the Geaxs from 2012 though. Those were impossible. I broke many tire levers trying to get them on.Challenge; Saguaro TNT on a Stans wheel?
I was able to mount one but ended up flatting it too, except I had to cut mine off wuthba pair of snips.I was going to post this. It’s gotta be the Geaxs from 2012 though. Those were impossible. I broke many tire levers trying to get them on.
But somehow when I flatted at KVSP one year I was able to put a tube in on the course. In think that was like the mom who picked up the car to save her baby though.

Oh man, triggered. That was my first tubeless build. I re-built some wheels with Crests but reused the Geaxs I already had. For science. I remember thinking "this can't possibly be right".I was going to post this. It’s gotta be the Geaxs from 2012 though. Those were impossible. I broke many tire levers trying to get them on.
Topically, I got a staple in a 5000TL this morning, 1/2 mile from home and 200m from my buddy's house. He drove me home and pretended not to mind that I sweated all over his interior. Fortunately, I have one new one left.
How about non tubeless tires?
Nothing like throwing some armadillos on Trek Matrix rims.
The tubeless or non tubeless ones?i actually needed to add another layer of rim tape.
The tubeless or non tubeless ones?
I have been running the non tubeless c24, was super easy
Curious, why did they have the tubeless specific ones that didn’t have the nipple holes?Both. Shimano was the only manufacturer that carried forth the torch of Mavic with regards to UST (which is just a profile, not a hole-less rim).
Who knows where it will go when they release new stuff...but I guess it was nice while it lasted?
