« on: April 22, 2021, 12:57:03 AM »Do you mean Light Bicycle wheels? If so, did you get them hookless, and how was the fit of the GP5000 tubeless tires? I ask because some bike brands claim these tires do not yet conform to the ETRTO standard for hookless rims, and thus are not compatible with their wheels.Hi,
Yes it is Light bicycle Falcon wheels with 36mm depth and 25-28 width. I choose the hook version as regarding the pressure chart on their website and my weight, hookless was not compatible. The 28mm GP5000 fitted quite easily (far more than the 25 on my old alu mavic) with a little help of a plastic lever at the end. Pressure is very stable with few liquid in it.
perhaps 30 or 32 mm tyres could fit on hookless with less pressure. LB has also a 32mm width range of rims that is perfect if you want to ride wider tyres than me. I feel the 2 very comfortable, even on rough roads in French countryside and mountain passes.
