Works better on latex than butyl tubes. Don't know how they work with tubeless.

I use caffelatex from effetto mariposa on my tubs and it has worked perfectly so far.

Yeah and what are you gonna do when you miss the puncture protected strip?

Yeah I'm not gonna stop using a sealant that works perfectly just so I can get to channel autism on my favourite past time of sewing tubulars.

And even if you're not using tubulars flats are never fun to get. So rather than waiting for the puncture to happen you can just avoid them.

You can fuck right off then with your "sealant" because getting flats is part of the hobby and if you are a decent rider you will even know how to avoid majority of punctures by using common sense.

I only get flats when I ride unknown trails and really push it hard and when I do get it it's quick and easy to fix.

reminder to check that your tire is seated all the way before you fully inflate your new tube!

Exactly. You also can't wear short socks or hang your helmet from one side of your bars.

You can do whatever you want but if you come here and get roasted for asking dumb questions outside /bqg/ don't get mad you poor little fred. You should also apply some "sealant" to your asshole while you are at it, I see it gets punctured a lot.

Spinning the wheel automatically distributes the sealant evenly through both tumbling and centripetal force, you turbo-autist. If you have no experience of a topic or basic life experience in combination with rudimentary deduction skills - kindly shut the fuck up.

Mine shipped with tubes and in 7 mos they haven't lost more than 5psi. Ive only pumped them up twice and they didn't even need it. I was waiting for a pinch to convert them to tubeless but it hasn't happened. Does anyone know what tubes Mavics ship with?

Please don't. Get ones labeled tubeless ready, or with an extra sidewall protection labeling (Conti Protection, Maxxis EXO etc). UST is an old Mavic "standard" ment to be used without sealant that never caught on. And for good reasons. It's shit.

UST is not what we normaly mean by tubeless these days.
