Robert Rutter asked how difficult was it to set up the Barlow Passes tubeless.
It was fairly tough as these things go. It was only my fourth time setting doing it so I'm by no means an expert. It was also my first time using tires that I would unambiguously characterize as Used tires. That part I kind of regret. I think in the future I will only use brand new tires. The front was easy and uneventful. The rear was hard to seat, even with my small compressor. I've managed to get some tires to seat with a floor pump but it's much better if you have a high flow rate air source. Even with a compressor the rear wouldn't seat. So I did the soapy water method, which worked well. Maybe ther was something smarter I could have done to try to make the remaining soapy water go away before adding sealant, but I just a added sealant. There was a lot of pinhole push through of soapy sealant all around the sidewalls. I flipped and swished and let it sit overnight and would wipe it off and flip it and let it sit again over the long weekend. Finally at the end of the weekend it seems to truly hold air. So again I think I may have been better off with new tires and possibly could have avoided the soapy water method. I feel like things would have settled down faster had the sealant not been mixed with some soapy water. Or I'll just get smarter over time.
