giganticWhile this is no doubt, an off label application, Surly Clownshoes rim strips work exceptionally well as a tubeless solution on Surly Marge Lite rims. Used without any Gorilla tape, they might be the lightest solution, as well. Simply put a tubeless valve through the valve hole on the strip, then the rim and stretch the rim strip in place, making certain that the strip runs from bead to bead, evenly along the circumference of the rim. Then, mount the tire, lubricating the bead/seating area with soapy water, remove the valve core and inflate until seated. Add your sealant of choice through the valve stem, replace the valve core, shake as needed and ride!
