will order a second set of wheels for my gravel bike in the next few days to set up with road tires - most likely Zipp 303 Firecrest - as they seem to be on sale for about $1500 in a few places, are nice and wide, light, and aero, and have a lifetime warranty. i will need to order some road tires (and a cassette and rotors) as i don't have any tubeless ready road tires....so i may as well order them at the same time.
if i was ordering just normal clincher tires I'd get the GP5000 - but is there a consensus on a similar default option for tubeless tires? GP5000 (TL or TR), Schwalbe Pro One? something else?
looking for something reasonably fast, with reasonable puncture protection, but easy to mount, and don't blead air. when i use the GP5000 "non TR" tires with tubes on my road bike i have hardly any punctures - so that level of puncture resistance (plus the sealant) will be more than adequate.
i have HED Emporia alu rims with panaracer GK SS tires on my gravel bike now and they hold air perfectly. Set up by the guys at Obed. This will be the first time i set up tubeless tires.
