All done, waaaaay easier than I was expecting.

You've probably done something wrong

Seems to me narrow roadie tubeless tyres are easier to seat than MTB or podgy balloon tyres.

I've seated my 2.4" Schwalbe Super Moto X tyres a couple of times with the track pump.

However, the last time was too much of a faff, so I bit the bullet and bought a blaster.

That usually seals with one go, although it took two blasts on one occasion.

Oh FFS, why have you said that? That thought is already in my head anyway, now you have confirmed it Although several hours later they are still inflated.

I will probably hear a huge pop later and find the whole garage covered in sealant 💦💦💦

Nah, it will wait till you're doing 50 down hill.

Don't want to worry you, like...

Describe the process to us, including every little step (if you remember). This way we may be able to tell if you've screwed up or not.

don't worry, its not until you ride the that you find out that the venn diagram of pressures needed ride on 25mm tyres and the pressures you can run tubeless at without it firing sealant like rocket out of any small hole have a very very fine overlap.
