My enduro mountain bike. We are talking about bicycles in this discussion, are we not? I suppose I can’t speak to anyones experience but my own but I used to get a lot more flats on tubed setups. Now the only time I get a flat is when I’ve broken a wheel
I usually run around 35psi (2.41 BAR) front and rear but I’m also kind of a giant who destroys rear wheels too often.
Currently on a Spank Race 33 rim and Vittoria Syerra’s for tires. The Syerra’s are really cool. They have really good rolling resistance. They aren’t the best in cornering grip but I find its really easy to ride them on the ‘edge’ of their grip if that makes sense. I also run cores in an attempt to prevent breaking more wheels
Sorry, but tubes are significantly better for off-road performance. What do you off-road?
Edit: I can’t really say why I wrote this comment like this. Very aggressive. Sorry again.

I’d only meant in my own experience. Sorry about that. I definitely wrote that comment as an asshole.
What pressures do you run in your tubeless setup?
Any specific rims or style you’d recommend?

Here’s the bike if you’re curious:
Pinch flats are way more likely when running low tire pressure off road. That does not happen with tubeless setups.
Yeah sorry, I’d meant that -in my experience.
I’d had issues with loss of air on hard turns or losing the bead more often. I wonder if the model of rim was poorly designed.
