Tubeless rims in the UK?

[drunkmunkey6969]

So in summary (for my own clarification because wading through 12 pages pre-coffee leaves me confused) at this moment in time...SIP seem to have addressed any suspected safety concerns and are producing a good set of safe tubless rims for about £60 per rim, and AF may follow suit in the future...but at this time their new rim is more like SIPs old rim, and they dont think that any of the Mk1 rim glitches present a safety issue? Is that about it?

Can the SIP ones be purchased with tyres pre-fitted?

Just to add to the summary (if I've read it right), possible isues with fitting high spec tyres like Schwalbe to the AF rim and it might not be possible to purchase SIP rims from within the UK due to some sort of distribution agreement between AF and SIP

SIP do offer a very good delivery service via DHL and you may be surprised that it might be cheaper and quicker carriage than offered by some in the UK.

Have emailed SIP to see if they will despatch these rims with tyres pre-fitted......

SIP supply the Vespa tubeless rims with tyres fitted but only their own tyres, the SIP performer, but I think it's something that they've only just started to do

Martin, if you can sort me a pair of the SIP Mk2 Black rims with sticky road tyres, i'll have them off you.

Also, any feedback on those plates i PMd you about?
