Hutchinson CX Tubeless Reviews
What impressions are out there using Hutchinson's Python & Bulldog tubeless CX tires with and or without the recommended shimano rims?
My area of CX racing is hot with 25+ races from September to December. Mostly dry Colorado front range conditions. The dry altitude conditions produce "goathead" thorns that are like nails in in vast quantities. Slime tubes suck. Tufos with sealant are preferred.
Tubeless would be a new adventure, but the appeal is compelling. Flat resistant, but yet to be proven solid technology. Tubulars are not really a consideration, but a good option for ride quality. Flat resistance is then an issue withou sealant.
