I'm ready to be torn apart, but tubeless was not for me. I rode tubeless for 2 summers and while I didn't have any major issues I did find them to be more work. That's relative of course. I very rarely get flats and even the "gravel road" sections I ride are more hard pack dirt than gravel. I think like anything else you have to figure out what works for you. For me I want to get on my bike and ride while doing as little maintenance as possible. I found a 700x35-40 tubed tire to work best for me. But like many other things you have to determine what will work best for you and your style of riding.
