I have no experience with tubeless tires. Looking at an inflated tire on the
wheel, how do you know if it's a tubeless tire? Thanks Timo |

Slime tubes are the only ones still holding air after the ride (or a tubeless filled with slime). Gary(carry spare tubes with tubeless tires) |

Okay It is real easy. The tire does not have a tube in it. Pretty easy huh? Now that's just silly. All you do is point at it and say, "Yes officer, that's the one." Bill "tread print will confirm" S. |
