I've not taken delivery yet (should be here tomorrow) but went for Hugo's.

Let's see hire they cope with whatever Stu throws at us on the BB200.

Velocity Dually with Maxxis Chronicle.
Sam did a deal with the Duallies in the original Kickstarter, so I guess they are going to be the most common choice.

Duallys with Dirt Wizards. Tubeless pretty easily with some Gorilla tape.

Got Hugo's on my 29er+ Travers Rudy Fat which I've run tubless with no problems.
Had North Paws in the past but couldn't do them tubless.
