Having been converted by ghetto tubeless on my muntin bike, and bought some knobbly touring tyres today for my surly, I was wondering whether there are any issues with going tubeless on 32c tyres at around 60psi.
Rolling tyre off the rim on a road corner doesn't sound like much fun, but that's feasible just as much with tubes surely? Any thoughts?

Open pro sports, schwalbe land cruiser's in 32c. Gorilla Tape and schwalbe sealant....

No problems here that wouldn't have happened with tubes. Couple of pinch flats that would've destroyed tubes.
Currently on Specialised Trigger 33's on Stans Alpha 400 rims.
Also used Continental Ultrasport 28's & Surly Knard 41's.
