Can you run these tubeless to race?

    Yes. They cope with it fine if you dont expect to run crazy low pressure. I ran as low as about 25 to 28 psi without issue in maybe 6 races early season. I took a liberty and tried lower psi but rolled the tyre off and planted my face into a tree.
    Be wared with tubeless. Once reliable they are worth the effort but expect to crash whilst you set them up.

    Also Mud 2's work wonders as an intermediate tyre. How they manage so much grip from so little tread amazes me. However, it is starting to get wet out there. I was sliding a lot on them today, time for something more aggressive treadwise for late season maybe.
