Almost.... roadie wheels run much higher pressure I would use a stronger tape than the bear tape for it by stronger I mean less flexible the bear tape deformed for me in the spoke holes. I used gorilla tape and two wraps. You could of course buy the correct tape.
This also depends on your wheels mine were not made for tubeless neither were the tyres it all worked great for 30kms then pfffttt the tyre rolled off the rim.

And chose the right sealant. The higher pressure can force it out the puncture hole before it can seal.

Roadie tyres can be bastards to seat fresh out of the pack. Being so much smaller than MTB tyres they're a lot stiffer, so any bead kinks from moulding or packaging can make life really hard. It may end up being necessary to run with a tube for a week or two to get the tyre into the right shape, then go tubeless. In any case, fit and inflate the tyre without sealant first, to ensure it's actually going to co-operate, then once it's seated properly remove the valve core, inject sealant and away you go.
DO NOT try ghetto tubeless like you might with MTB; due to the higher pressure there's a very high chance of it not holding properly. Only use proper tubeless-compatible rims & tyres.

Might just bung some sealant in the tubes then. Neither rims nor tyres will be tubless ready. I just want to minimize the the likelyhood of punctures, would love not to have to carry spares, CO2 etc.

That's how I roll on the roadie. We used to rent a house on a grape block, picking season sucked as the tractors and semi trailers dragged all the three corner jack all over the roads.

Its basically a marketing creation. I know AliExpress push it a lot. Many online retailers especially push this one.
Any reason/excuse to have an event and boost traffic and sales.

Alright, two questions ...
How many ml is in the rockshox syringe extension? I'm assuming that the ml reading on the syringe is for the syringe only and excluding the adapter,
Also, My Lyrik Charger 2 RCT3 lower on the damper side requires 10ml of 0-30w oil. If I were to underfill or overfill by 2ml , what are the side effects I should look out for in each case? There are a few dated threads online re: too much oil but I imagine symptoms would differ between forks.
Cheers

I figure 2ml isn't much when you look at it independently but when its becomes a 20% oil difference then part of me starts questioning it. All signs point to me overthinking it haha.
Doh ... such a simple solution, didn't think of that ... I'll remember for next time
Thanks!

Surely you loose 2ml between services in any case? Never had dry lowers but definitely less oil at service time than I put in.

Pretty sure the Matchmaker setup centres around the clamp and the levers bolt on as required.
