    I am considering buying a set of Fulcrum 3's (2 way fit version) but I have been unable to find anywhere that specifically states the type of tyre to be used when running tubeless. Do you just use a regular clincher tyre but without a tube? Or are there specific tubeless tyres for these type wheels?

    Tubeless. Hutchinson, schwalbe, Specialized, Bontrager, take your pick.

    I have run them for 5 years and had one single puncture that forced me out of a race in that time.

    Buy Caffelatex sealant plus its injector and put 30ml in each tyre. Might be a good idea to use a Co2 canister to inflate the tyre first time, although with good tyre / wheel combo a decent track pump will do the job.

    Once inflated the tire hooks onto the rim.
