Try all the Current Line up pf Conti, Michelin. Schwable............nothing comes close to FMB, Vittoria High TPI cotton tyres with Latex, Even running same size tyres between 28mm tubeless Conti at 60/65 PSI vs FMB/Vittoria 28mm + latex at 75/80PSI, the FMB/Vittoria rides way way better -> why?
- Absorbed all the road vibrations better
- Get bounced around a bad tarmc road better
- After a 4 to 5 hrs ride, your butt tells you they are way apart even with 20 PSI differences
- your arm feels it? the feeling of a cushion ride vs harsh bouncing ride
- the only time tubelss make any senses is on a gravel fill or mix tarmac/gravel road where low pressure helps
- ZERO chance of tubeless hold pressure without leaking 10 to 20 PSI over night - using Shimano, PCW, ENVE, Campy, Zipp, LW, Bike Ahead Composite wheels with Conti, Schwable tubeless with 60 ml sealant per tyre!!!! The last 20 years I change my car tyres, I do not need selant to prevent leaking of air in my car tyres? So the morale of the story, Tubeless is a BS marketing with lack of industry wide standard for safety and alignment - let's not talk about proper testing!!!
when DO YOU have fill in sealant in your car tyres after changing to a new set of Conti Sports Cup or Michelin PSS sports tyres? You probably sue Conti and Michelin for safety to drivers/owners!!!!
- Hookless is the new normal for tubeless? The data shows it roll bad vs hooked rim?
- Wider rims make sense? yes? probably for 25 to 28mm tyres with 20 to 23mm inner rim width --> this is no technology break-thru. just a simple change
The industry have not progress much except for marketing grimmicks to make you spend on things which ain't true?

Just wonder how these compare to Vittoria Corsa with Latex? I've not find anything that rides better than cotton high TPI tyres with latex. All the Tubeless marketing BS or whataver, nothing ride close nor roll better in a real world environment.
I've also been riding on sworks cottons (1000km and they are done and dusted) with latex, feels good, rolls smooth. Same feeling with Vittoria Corsa, but these are more puncture resistant than sworks cottons. I could be biased, but I prefer these power cup's above vittora corsa. Give them a try
