Tubeless MTB Kit

This kit is designed for standard mountain bike wheels, but compatibility depends on your rim width. The included rim tape is 29mm wide, so you should measure your internal rim width to ensure it provides adequate coverage before purchasing.

The Race Face Tubeless MTB Kit includes the essential components to convert your wheels: high-quality rim tape and tubeless-specific valves. Note that you will still need to purchase tubeless-compatible sealant separately to complete the setup.

Yes, for the best results and safety, you should use tires specifically labeled as 'Tubeless Ready' or 'Tubeless Compatible.' While some standard tires can be converted, tubeless-specific tires have reinforced beads that create a much more secure and airtight seal.

By removing the inner tube, you eliminate the risk of pinch flats, which are common when riding over rocks or roots. This setup also allows you to run lower tire pressures, which significantly increases your tire's contact patch for better traction and a smoother ride.

Converting to tubeless is a manageable DIY project, but it does require some patience and attention to detail. The most critical step is ensuring the rim tape is applied smoothly and without air bubbles to maintain an airtight seal.
