Absolutely understand your standpoint. Everybody has to decide what he wants from a tire. I ride on rough roads and therefore tubeless is a no brainer.

Don’t forget to add weight of tubeless valve stems and for Bontrager the 50gram plastic rim strip.

Tubeless are only faster when they are ran with the same pressure as a TPU. Tubeless are usually ran at a much lower pressure than TPU which makes them slower.

Age old debate. Weight or rotating resistance. iirc Orange seal recommends 1-2oz of sealant. Weight weenies use 1oz. 280 g for tire + 35g for 1 oz sealant = 315 vs 280g for regular tire with TPU. Seems negligible either way. Can 35 grams be felt spinning up?

On my Ostro running a 250g gp5 clincher + 25g TPU. 275g total. Gp5 st r 280g + 35 for 1 oz, 70 for 2oz. I run 2 oz. I can feel that. Not at speed, but at initial acceleration. Feels muted and less responsive. All personal preference.

@@addictcyclist I've often wondered what effects the sealant sloshing around adds to watts or also to handling dynamics at high speeds. My understanding is that rolling resistance tests tests tires dry. But maybe I'm wrong there.

@@richcole3931 I think BRR test with 20ml of sealant, which is effectively dry.
