Thanks for that. It's interesting that when I swapped my 559 X 35 mm Kojaks (used with tubes) for Compass Elk Passes, the increase in ease of pedaling and "smoothness" was pretty closely imitated by the same Kojaks run tubeless. I didn't ride the Kojaks tubeless long enough to develop a precise opinion, but certainly the Kojaks were far better -- and they're not bad tires to begin with.
(I gave up on the Kojaks tubeless because I could not get a consistent seal; only air pressure, and not the bead/carcase itself, kept the bead in place -- rims were tubeless ready Sun/Ringle EQ 21s; with braking surfaces, to link to another recent thread.) Man, Compass extra lights run tubeless must indeed be magical?
