I bought them from our local Giant Dealer in Shelly Beach

I've used the white latex sealant for some time now with no issues at all but the gooey mess when you remove the tyre has left me frustrated. I'm going to give the Ryder Green Tyre Sealant a try, hopefully it won't disappoint.

I bought the Kenda Flintridge 700x40C Tubeless Ready tyres and took the HT for a long road ride today. The rolling resistance is minimal and the bike feels good with those tyres.

The replies have been most informative and I thank you all for your input, I'm still a bit puzzled about my mishap with the Conties though.

The Kenda Flintridge has a good write up.

Cool.

That makes good sense, thanks!

Thanks man! I require them mainly for tar road riding. I'd use my regular MTB for off road and gravel.

Great thank you

The Conties I fitted aren't tubeless specific. After my puncture I discovered that the tube was rubbing against the inner casing of the Conties causing the problem. This happened with regular Scott specific Syncross Alexrims. When I fitted the Conties on my ZTR ARCH EX 29er rims the fit was much tighter but the beading didn't seem to fit properly.
