I use Stan's rims and sealant and it's great on the MTB. However, I
wouldn't try just rim strips or any of the dozen ways of taping your rim.
Instant air loss and the tire coming off the rim are my big worry.
Especially on the front if you hit it sideways. They (Macho DIY'ers) call
this burping.

Subject: [OBRA Chat] Anyone try out "Ghetto Tubeless" yet?
Has anyone in OBRA-land tried the ghetto-tubeless system yet? If you don't
know what I'm talking about, it's basically using a 20" tube and cutting it
in half to replace a Stans rim strip (or comparable one) and going from
there.
I'd love to know if you've tried it and how it's holding out (i.e. is it
holding air well? what's the seal like?...)
