Tubeless CX tires (now that Hutchinson is out)
I am very bummed about Hutchinson's changes to the Bulldog/Piranha. The new ones are UCI legal, but for 99% of us this is not an issue. I now need to find a tire that i can run tubeless on Ultegra tubleless wheels. Who can share some of their experience with me? no burping please...

Update on the PDX- Saturday, I started the Turkey Cross here in Boise with about 30psi in the rear. Too low for me. First lap, I had an ugly remount on concrete after getting stalled behind others on the barriers. Burped the rear, tried nursing it through the lap, but the course had a lot of off camber, rough, sandy sections. Fully flatted, DNF 'cause I don't have a pit wheelset.
For Sunday, I cleaned the sand off of the tire and rim, remounted the tire with a layer of Gorilla tape (1 layer of Velocity tape underneath,) and it aired up well. Ran about 35psi rear, 32 front, no problems.
mostly same course with a couple of changes. I was able to ride that particular barrier section, but there was an additional stair run-up, so same number of remounts.
While I definitely had too little air on Saturday, if I had originally set it up with the Gorilla tape, I think I wouldn't have burped as easily.Los
