Will 700x47c Pathfinder Pro 2Bliss Ready tyres fit on a Turbo Vado SL 5?

I include the setup and periodic maintenance. I need to add sealant about every 3-4 weeks in the rear. I have a calendar reminder to wax chains and check sealant every two weeks. I've learned tubeless doesn't work if it's out of sealant. Flats per mile are very dependent on where you ride, tire size and ahem, rider weight. 32's are way too small.

The one tire that I've installed that was actually tubeless ready went pretty easily but I wouldn't have wanted to do it without an air compressor. Trigger pro just delivered, hopefully it will go on just as well.

Trigger pro

Judging by the tread, this tyre falls between the Pathfinder Pro and Tracer Pro!

I thought the G-one went on easily enough but the Trigger went on even easier. Just minutes and no leaks whatsoever with soapy water test.
At 50 psi measures 36.5mm on a 17mm i.d. rim, about 2mm narrower than the 700X40c Schwalbe.

that’s interesting, i add sealant waaaay less often than that (on 28-32mm road tires). i wonder what the variable is?

What e-bike you are riding? Besides, 50 psi is a lot. Will you ride at a reduced inflation? My brother told me you could expect the tyre being narrower in case your rim is as narrow as 17 mm!

My rims are 21 mm internal width (my brother claims these are actually 23 mm). The 42 Tracer Pro assumes 44.5 mm on that rim on my Vado SL, which is shocking! That's the reason SKS Speedrocker fender didn't fit as the mudguard is good for a true 42 mm tyre!

It's a 2019 BH gravel bike with Yamaha PW-SE. Nice bike with the exception of walk assist having been disabled by BH. I'll never forgive them for that.
Seems to be more road bike equipped including Shimano 105 derailleurs and narrow rims.
Trigger pressure range is 45-90psi, Specialized recommended running in that range including tubeless per the tire review video on their web site. G-One pressure range is 45-70psi. Doesn't handling get squirrelly at lower pressure and increased rolling resistance at lower pressures? Not great weather today but I plan on riding with different pressures to see what it feels like.

I usually check the Rene Herse Tire Pressure Calculator. Silca Tire Pressure Calculator is also a good one.

Rene Herse explains why a lower pressure could actually be as good (or better) as a higher one.

The Trigger pro works well for me, about 25 miles 50:50 mixed asphalt and smooth gravel. Holding pressure steady at 60psi for about a week as is the G-one tubeless with gorilla tape and orange seal. I like it and it was inexpensive
