Here is a tubeless conversion kit, actually just some tape to seal the spokes.  Has anyone ever tried this on any bike?

1. you don't have to buy tubes...
2. you can plug a tire on the road...
3. you can plug a tire on the road, while it's still on the rim...

I'd like it,.. but I don't trust it...

Those metzler 880's are a pretty stout tire.  I wouldn't want to find out, but how far do you think you could go on a flat tire going about 2o mph if you had to?

If its a rear flat, youre ahead at highway speeds, the centrifugal forces hold the tire up. Slow, they get weird, a front flat? Dont,, just DONT..
