I have already proposed this question to Campagnolo USA and our favorite European Campy rep here on this forum but have not yet received a response.
Can I use a tubeless setup with my new 2015 Campagnolo Shamal Millie wheelset. The aluminum rims seem to have the approapriate tire seating groove and the spoke holes are absent. It appears as though it should be a seemless setup for tubeless tires. However, I have a concern that some of the chemicals in the tire sealant may damage the Electrochemical Blackened Coating on the rim set.
New Campagnolo Shamal Millie Wheelset as Tubeless Setup?

Yes, that is correct. However, my local shop owner (who sold me the wheels) says I should be fine. Since the forum members here have so much experience with these type of issues I thought I would get a few more opinions.

I'm surprised anyone from Campagnolo would say it was okay to use tubeless tyres on a non-tubeless rim.
I assumed for liability purposes they would just say no.
Can you rely on your local rep to honour the warranty if you needed it in the future?
