Subject: AW: Tube or Tubeless?
I just heard a rumour that using a tube with tubeless tyre can cause some
troubles because the inner surface of the tubeless is more rough than that
of the tube type and there is a risk of puncture when the tube rubs against
the tyre.
Is this true or just bullshit, I dont know.

Hi Luis,
you can only install tires with a tube - cause the @ has tube type
rims. So, no matter if you install tube or tubeless tires you have to
use a tube! I don't thin that there is a difference in the tire itself
- but if you can get a tube version - take it!
Ciao, Micha ;-)

Betreff: (XRV) Tube or Tubeless?
I want to buy a Metzeler Enduro 4 front tire, and the dealer says they
have both tubeless and tubed versions. When I asked about the
diference
he told me it was the same thing.
What are the diferences and advantages between tubed and tubeless
tyres?
Why should I install the tubeless version? My current tires are Enduro
3, so I already have the tube.
Thanks
Luis de Almeida
