just fixed a puncture in the rear of the Beta in less than 10 minutes and that included unpacking the kit its so easy no glue or mess. Pete when you get your top box fitted get one of these kits and an electric pump you may have to leave some of your DMB torture kit behind though.
I run a Mousse in the tyre but I've made it air tight to keep out the crap and the idea was if the moose fails i can pump the tyre up and ride it home

Smart thing having it air tight, I assumed it was just mousse and was wondering what bike you had with tubeless tires 

I don't have any bikes that are tubeless but been thinking of converting the CRF1000 ever since I've had it still haven't got around to it though
I've even managed to get the wheels on the Beta air tight with rim locks fitted don't know how air tight but hopefully enough to get me home

From what I’ve seen a conversion is not something you can really trust over time, unless you actually change wheels for proper tubeless ones.

If its done correctly there's no problems with them converted, there's people that have had  them for 6 years now with no issues on the CRF page
