Currently have Syncros X-21 rims with tubes. Is it possible to convert to tubeless with a DIY kit?
Thanks

I did quite a few upgrades to my 2016 Scott Spark 930. Among the upgrades were going tubeless with Schwalbe Racing Ralph 29x2.25 EVOs. Remove the fabric tube protector rim tape, install Stans tubeless rim tape with Stans tubeless Presta valves and you're good to go.

Thanks Hurdles for the information, weren't the tire too easy to put on?
Like if the rim was a tad too small?

We recently tried with a friend to go tubeless with these rims, but with Rocket Ron tires.
I did tubeless conversion many times on many rims but this one is becoming a little hell.

With a tube inside, if the tire is a little out of center, it gets out of the rim(the tube popping out), instead of centering itself like other tires.
