I appreciate any insight anyone can provide here. Thanks!

I think with a stans No-tubes kit you can go tubeless.
Since I went tubelss 2 YEARS ago, have not had 1 flat.
I use to get a flat every 80 miles or so, and tubes started to add up.
I have used a couple of CO2 cartridges to fill tube tires for riding companions, more because I didn't want to wait for them to pump than just being nice
Go tubless you'll never go back!!!!!
