I bought a new hard tail that came with a set of non tubeless Maxxis Icon 2.20 tyres which they are honestly quite crappy but I wanted to see just how far I could ride with them. I did a tubeless set up and off I went. To cut a long story sort I did 7500km mainly gravel riding which included a few races, they are horrendous for technical type riding but for XC type riding they work well I did get the odd hole here and there but nothing that a plug and a bomb couldn't sort out. A friend of mine gave me another set that came of he's brand new bike and I've already installed them... ready for round two.
