hi all

just pulled the front tyre off the kat to swap it for a new one
there's a tube in there?!!!

should it there be?
the rear is tubeless cos i did a rear tyre on that one earlier this year

shouldnt the front be tubeless?


advice would be appreciated, trying to get ready for this nfr thingo ;)

If you have a tube and you get a flat you have a better chance of repairing it if you have a tube.
I have tubes in the front and rear of my gs
the tyres say tubless

so you think the rim will be cool if i dont put a tube in?
think i have a spare valve around here somewhere...

Your Kat has the cast wheels (& no screen :() from memory Fimp in which case they are designed to run tubeless - different story for spokies, they need tubes.
Put the screen back on fuckya!

Most bike / tyre shops won't put a plug in a front tubeless tyre, so you might have had a nail at some stage and they put a tube in to keep the tyre.

Tubes go POP tubeless go SHHHSHSHSHHHHSSH!

Never use tubes unless you have to IMO.
