what kind of slim can I use with Continental Mountain King UST?


I emailed the above question to Continental tech support department. Below is what they replied

“I would run Stan's No-Tubes. Continental has excellent results with this product and there are no warranty stipulations with its use.

Enjoy the Ride!”

If you're on a tubeless rim, why use any...unless you have lots of thorns.

UST is tubeless.

I have never seen a tubless hold air for any long peoord of time with out some Stans/slim type product

Some people run the UST tires with rim conversion kits (which don't always seal as well), hence my question.

If they aren't holding air, they're not being set up properly.
