28F/32R here also. Badcat you lucky... er, cat... you got tubeless wheels and maybe you won't have to pump them up every other week like I do!

no - my 81 has tubeless cast wheels - but they both seem to lose about 6 psi a week...
i'm having them powdercoated soon - maybe that will seal them better...
