So, life took a different approach and I needed to downsize my bikes. I’m selling my TCR 2021 and just traded my gravel for a Cannondale SuperSix Evo 2015 - Rim Brakes. That will be my only bike from now on. The bike is beautiful, zero scuffs, it is really like new. I have no idea how/where the sel…

Looks like there are two options, one listed as ‘clincher’ and the other as ‘tubeless ready’. The tubeless one is more expensive, and listed by my supplier as coming with an XDR Freehub, so that’s a couple of possible clues.

Thanks for your help @alexgold123 It seems the case, there’s mismatched information on those wheels. I’m confident mine aren’t tubeless, and just to play safe I bought some TPU inner tubes to use with them. I have to confess that they are extremely light.

Be careful. My understanding is that tubeless is not compatible with rim brakes, no matter what the rim says. So before running these tubeless, make sure that they will work tubeless with rim brakes

There’s no issue running tubeless with rim brakes. I have 303FC and DT Dicut 1400 both setup tubeless for my rim brake road bike. [image] Road Bike - Tubeless With Rim Brakes Equipment Does anyone have experience using a tubeless setup with rim brakes? There are a few man…

I don’t think there’s any relation between rim brake and tubeless as long as the rim is tubeless-ready. Hunt has some excellent rim brake wheels, and they are all tubeless. My wheels aren’t, so I’ll run them with TPU tubes.

Interesting. Maybe my info is out of date. Good to know

Plenty of rim braked wheels are sold as tubeless. I’ve probably been running tubeless rim brake wheels for just under 30,000miles.
