tubless on tube rims

Post by Seiler, Kevin » Mon Aug 21, 2000 2:29 pm

One thing you need to mindful of with trying to run tires without tubes on a rim that was originally designed for tubes, is that a blowout could be very dangerous. Tubless rims seat their tires more securely so that in the event of a blowout, the tire does not leave the rim. Not so on tubless rims. There have been owners of older Guzzis with cast rims that have had near death experiences with this. Take caution! Kev
