But I ran 23C tires front and back with latex tubes. I think he could run that, no?
Maybe, depending on how big he is and how lucky he gets on his line entering the dirt at high speed. If it were me and I had the choice between the two setups specifically for Battenkill (assume limited to 23-24mm), I'd run the tubeless in a heartbeat. Just because what you did is possible doesn't mean it's the best, or most reliable choice.
I know. I was just taking issue with your assertion that he'd need to run >110psi to avoid pinch flatting :-)
Ugh.
gp4k 25mm 90psi at 170lbs this year without any trouble (Raceday and Fall-Preride)
The entire event (IM) is like "death by 1000 cuts" and the best race is minimizing all those cuts and losing less blood than the other guy. - Dev
