    1. Do tubeless tires really make a difference?
    2. Is the "Stan's" system any good?
    3. Has anybody used this system on WTB Speed Disc Rims?
    4. How well do they really hold air.
    5. notubes.com recommends not using CO2....that sucks. (this is a
    comment and not a question)

    Although I've never flatted on my current tubed tires, I'm thinking
    about giving tubeless a try.

    What's the point?

    I'm slow to change so I've turned a new leave to be more receptive to
    hype.

    Oh, and try getting tubeless to inflate from flat. hehehe.

    I'll use a tube for temporary flats.

    SS is no hype, it's the real thing.

    Then try the tubeless! Don't forget the slime. I've got a slime treated tire
    with a thorn hole in it still holding pressure.
