I'm currently in the same boat, running standard tires and tubes on my Bontrager Race TL wheelset. It works fine, and the valvestems seem to be okay. I don't know if your crossmax wheels will be any different though...
UST rims + tubes + sealant?
long story short, i need to run a different (winter) set of tyres for about 8 weeks on my crossmax sl wheels
thinking the most cost effective way will be to get some non-ust tyres and tubes, 2 questions :
- will i need longer stemmed valves for these wheels?
- can i remove the valve and 'inject' some stan's sealant into the tubes (& will this work)?
thanks in advance :thumbsup:

No standard tubes and valves work.
Should not need Stans in tubes.
This is the basic flat fix.
What I dont know are the tire beads adequate.
I will be trying some Nokian Mount and Ground this winter on Crossmax XL ans SL.
