    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.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Peace,

    Here's a cheap way to go tubeless. I've been using this system for a
    couple years with no problem. I ride in areas with lots of thorns. This is
    great for my big bike which has thru-axles for front and back.

    Thanks for the link, it looks like it would be worth a try, even if it
    is not for the #1 bike.

    The only real limiter is having access to compressed air. I bought a
    portable air tank on sale from Sears for $15.
