I've an oldish pair of EA70 wheels (26') on my winter. (I've just moved to tubeless on my best bike and now I'm a convert. I used WTB valves as they're in WTB rims.)

The Easton's have Nobby Nics on them... Can these wheels go tubeless and if they can, which would be the best valves to use please?

Thanks a mil.

I've used the stans valves with no issues. Pricey for what they are, but they worked reliably for me.

Can't comment on the wheels / tyres, beyond noting that I've got a tubeless setup on completely no-brand Decathlon basic wheels with Gorilla tape and OnOne Chunky Monkey 29er tyres which have been up for the last 9 months with no issues at all. Seems to me any wheel (within reason) can go tubeless, and I think in terms of the tyres it depends which iteration of the Nobby Nics you have may influence how good / robust they will be as tubeless.

Why not just try it and see?
