Sweet! If I order a new wheelset anytime soon it's gonna be UST. Tempting deal on eBay on Mavic's these days.

Let me know how you like going tubeless.

So Rola, are you tubeless yet? I'm 99% there. Mounted up a set of Maxxis Ignitors on my new Easton ea70cxt wheels (tubeless rims) last night but was unable to get the bead to seal using my hand pump. Heading out at lunch today to find a Presta valve attachment for my air compressor. Hope I can get them to seal with a little forced air. The tires aren't UST but many people say they're running that tire tubeless so we'll see.
