With so many bikes....between so many people in the family and all the disciplines... I'd burn them if they were all tubeless. As it is I yank them out when we need the bike, air them up and forget about it.

What I do enjoy about tubeless is that I do make an immense amount of money for setting them up for people in the shop. It takes longer for sure but the $/minute are definitely better on the tubeless side. With the shop and all the right tools it can also be fun to set them up.
