Hey, why are you wanting tubeless tires? If you’re planning to run wire wheels, it’s difficult to reliably run tubeless tires. I’ve seen it done on drop center HD rims with about a gallon of silicone, but generally you need mags to run tubeless tires without tubes in them. (Yes there are a few wire wheels out there that can run tubeless tires, but they are rare. Naturally you can run tubeless tires with tubes in them if you want to, happens all the time.)

Looks good, I like the bars/seat/headlight combo. Your forward controls seem a little high–is that for better cornering clearance?
