On a bicycle? Shouldn't think so.
I wish Chrisgixer was here to answer difficult questions such as these.

I would ask him: my tyres keep losing pressure. I have purchased some cheap Chinese valves but they are, unsurprisingly, crap and didn't cure the problem. I thought about getting the wheel rims cleaned, thought for ages and ages, but decided I am too tight. What should I do? Stick inner tubes in? ;D

It's not legal because it's not safe. The problem is the inside of a tubeless tyre isn't smooth. It will abrade the inner tube until it goes pop. A friend had a very nasty accident on a motorbike because he did this and the front tyre went pop at high speed.

Completely, totally and utterly illegal. And with good reason. Don't even go there...

I'm losing about five pounds each day.

That's 5 PSI and not £5.....or if on a diet 5LB.

Just though I'd clarify for the thickies amongst you. ;D

...on all four wheels? ;)

I'm spending more and more time with the foot pump. :-\

I'm tempted to buy a two year old Daewoo......then I won't need to concern myself with age related problems. :)

Actually, given TBs recent experience, be prudent to check the inner sidewalls for cracking :-\
