[Closed] Whyte wheels - what do you need to do to set up tubeless?

My 929 (with WTB STi 29er rims) looks to have rim tape fitted & came with the valves to convert it. I believe the tyres were tubeless, but haven't bothered converting them

I converted my WTB STi19 29" Rims that came with a T-129 to tubeless with no problems. The rim tape is already fitted so just added a couple of Stans No Tubes valves and some sealant.

I don't have mine yet bit have been told a) everything's included, valves too b) the stock tyres will work but not well, was advised I'll want to try something different.

I couldn't get the stock tyres to seal with Stans... not tried the On-Ones as yet (running those on another set of tubeless ready wheels).

Thinking of trying something else on the T129 for summer, if it ever arrives, but not quite sure what yet.

I couldn't get the stock tyres to seal with Stans.

The shop told me the same, and when they eventually did they leaked a lot and the bead stretched.

The stock wheels on my T129S came pre-yellow taped (it looks OK done) and I did get valves. I've not yet done a setup tho.

Charlie, yes but with gotchas, see the 'other' thread.

PSA: the Ardent on the front burped today causing the rider (luckily not me 😉 ) to crash. Fortunately he was not injured. Also when I looked at putting the Ikon on the rear tubeless last week I noticed a huge kink in the beading, (I don't believe I did that), it would never have sealed and is in the bin.

I put a tube in the Ardent, and it's staying there.

I won't be running these tyres tubeless on these rims again, it's not worth the risk.

FWIW, the shop where I bought the bike set up the stock rims / tyres tubeless and didnt seem to have any problem whatsoever.
So far, probably have around 36 hours of riding on them and no burps or pressure loss.

YMMV,
