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

Nope, it's to keep your straps down and quieter. Plus most sunglasses are polycarbonate and aren't going to shatter like glass anyway

And, more seriously, where's the coverage of the closure of the cycle lane which forces you to cycle on the Totton bypass.

I run my commuter with 28s at 60psi I weigh 90kg three years of daily commutes, no issues.
That sounds sensible. What psi do you reckon for 28mm tyres?
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
the site says Rider weight limit is 120kgs.
cant comment on GP5000 sorry
Up to 110kg rider I believe
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.
