tubed/tubeless?

Post by ebarber_b14c » Mon Jan 26, 2004 12:39 pm

I've been considering replacing my tires with some Avon Distanzias, however as far as I can tell they are only available in tubeless. Is it a problem putting a tube in one of these? Or do they sell tubed versions? Thanks, Erik

I have Distanzias on my KLR and have been very happy with them. I also have tubes in them and it is no problem at all.
