there would be a substantial increase in CRR with the tire/tube inflated to 80 psi... and this would all be different for a Tubeless.
So you are referring to the rolling resistance increase at 80 psi versus some higher pressure. Okay then.
When it comes to rolling resistance, tire/tube combinations have been compared.
Here is an "apples to apples" comparison of the Continental Grand Prix 5000, both tubeless ready with sealant and tubed versions. The differences are miniscule.
