I think the tubeless conversion is a very good mod. It mead the pole hose gets wiped every time the hose is wound in, it stops the hose getting tangled up in the back of the van, and protects the fittings. Mine has been fitted to my pole for nearly a year and it is still using the original rectus fitting it was supplied with and is not leaking or jamming up.
Lee, I am glad to hear that, and I am confident that people who convert will be happy they did.
The term "hacksawing" has the idea of mutilation of a limb which is misleading.
Carbon is very easy to cut and to sand down, so please don't be turned off from going tubeless.
Anyway I have found a way to go tubeless without cutting the pole down, this way it can be tried to see if you like it. And you won't void a warranty
I will post a vid tomorrow.
Steven.
