Interested in getting some but not sure if they will fit on flow rims. Had a poor experience trying to get some non-tubeless maxxis HR2's to stay on previously so a little wary.

You have linked to Der Barons rather than Barons as mentioned in the thread header...

Der Barons are the DH version and Barons are the lighter trail tyres.

I run a set of Black Chilli Barons tubeless with no problem on Flows, they are a good intermediate/soft loamy condition tyre but can slide on smooth hardpack.

Run mine at 21psi front and 23psi rear and I am a 14st lump kitted up.

On bike discount they call both the 2.3 baron and 2.5 der baron the same thing - der barons
Pretty sure the 2.3 is a baron though. I now buy my conti tyres off there, much cheaper even when you factor in postage.
