    Good post as i have been think of doing this myself the only thing that is stopping me from getting the kit is finding a suitable tyre. I know from MTB experiences that not all tyres work so have to look into it a bit more before i commit. Although i think its the best option.

    ha! fair play, thanks for that....

    I have a set of zipp 343s.. theyre an older zipp, dimpled.. but with a 404 on the back and a 303 on the front... ill look into whether the rim strips will hold the sealant in....

    Yeah i was also thinking of getting them for cross, i have a set of Ksyrium's. the reason i asked was because i was wondering if the width described on the kit would fit the majority of wheels, it says suitable for 17-21mm and wasn't sure where this dimension was taken from and too lazy to take tyre and tube out to check. Although after another search it appears the strips do work with my wheels.
