Hi! I am interested in handsling hookless tubeless carbon wheels. https://handslingbikes.com/products/handsling-off-set-hookless-tubeless-wheels

However as I weight 95 kg I am a bit worried that tyres might blow off the rims at the kind of pressures I would need. Is this likely to be an issue? What tyres would be good? I understand
the continental gp5000 tubeless tyres are not supposed to be used hookless for example

That sounds sensible. What psi do you reckon for 28mm tyres?

Being 95Kg you really should

Being 95Kg you really should be using 28mm minimum, Ideally 30mm+ to get ride comfort without needing 100psi+ to keep tyre from deforming under weight.  I 28mm-40mm tyres for riding various bikes I own

Tubeless can be run at lower

Tubeless can be run at lower pressures and the link claims it is very hard to come off.

I’d be interested to find the total weight the wheels are designed for.
