Damn. Call out!
i still had one cog left on the cassette! Haha

Johnny, did you put together your bike or did an LBS?

I found out (after a flat this morning) that I had tubes in my tubeless wheels (same rims/tires as yours). Just wondering if that's the norm or if my LBS was being dumb. Gonna go pick up a tubeless kit tomorrow and test things out.

I did.

Yeah, I'm assuming the LBS just threw tubes in thinking most people have no idea what tubeless is and if they flatted, would freak out about not having a tube in the tire. Who knows.

I'm picking up some slime and valves today, will be tubeless this afternoon.

The durano s tires aren't toobless.
I'm not risking my teeth with that.

but if you're going to do it, i'd suggest a latex based sealant (like stan's) vs. a fiber sealant (like slime).

Ahh, mine came with ultremo zx's. I picked up the stans sealant as well. However, I popped the bead at 120psi, so I gave up.

They make ultremo's as clinchers and tubeless, c'dale website says tubeless in the specs...wonder if they're the clinchers and not the tubeless tires? I need to go investigate. However, I think I'm going to give up and sell the wheelset. I have another set of carbon clinchers on the way.

I'm really bad at taking podium photos.

GMJ missed the best podium photo, but can humble brag like no other.

enjoyed a nice sunset tonight.

That would be so awesome, if it weren't for the purple crocs.

Does the orange string-like stuff you have wounded all over your frame light up/ glow?

Indeed it does. It's not crazy bright, but it's quite nice at night, and was pretty cheap -- from bikeglow.com
