I'm surprised to hear Mark's experience with shredded Thunder Burts on the 
Oregon Outback.  I ran the liteskin 2.1" tubeless, and had one leak early 
on the first day, but managed to spin seal it, and never had to pump it up 
again.  My buddy was running the Snakeskin 2.1 rear and 2.25 front, and had 
a similar early leak on the rear that we sealed with some pumping and 
spinning, but he did manage to pinch flat the front on an extra aggressive 
creek crossing submerged rock hit on day 4 (the guy behind us double 
flatted his beefier tires), and we tubed it due to a .5 cm cut that needed 
more than sealant.  At the end of the ride, after a clean up, the tires 
don't look too much worse for wear.  I could see putting a lot more miles 
on these bad boys.  And dammmmnn - they are supple!
