What tubeless wheels do you have? You can use non tubeless tyres for cx as the pressures are only 30-40 psi. I've used michelin mud 2's on durace tubeless wheels. It worked but the rim is really to narrow for a 30-35 width tyre. I think something around 18-20mm internal width is better.
Vittoria Cross XG Pro with the TNT casing (same as Geax) is a 700x32 tubeless cross tyre http://www.gkasportsstore.com.au/vitt-cross-32mm-p-4591.htmlI have Ultegra tubeless road wheels
Ultegra rims are the same as Durace. Mine are 9700 and 15mm ID and result in a very round profile on a 30c cx tyre. I couldn't get the mud 2's to seat with a track pump and needed a compressor. CXmagazine web site has some good info on what non tubeless cx tyres they have used successfully tubeless. I was also nervous about using a low spoke count wheel, durace wheels aren't ride able once a spoke goes.I have Ultegra tubeless road wheels
Looks perfect!I bought one of these a few years ago and just connect it to a small compressor.

The handset just clips onto the end of the hose running from the compressor.Looks perfect!
Does it just hook up to the Schrader output of any compressor?
Cool, thanks.The handset just clips onto the end of the hose running from the compressor.
Ha! I didn't even consider ringing the bike shop, my local Castle Hill bike shop has them for three bucks.You can get presta > schrader adapters at any bike shop for a couple of bucks, just a little threaded brass thing. I've found that they seem to restrict airflow a little though which can make seating tubeless MTB tyres a bit of a shit at times.

I'll definitely consider the prestaflator though - looks like a good product.
You mean blown up two compressors? Sounds quite possible. Having spoken to ARB who sell decent 4WD gear, if you buy a compressor at SuperCheap Auto or Autobarn expect it to blow up quickly as they are the cheapest nastiest crap they can possibly sell.I have one
I would sell it
no compressor - have blown up two in three years - completely useless.
