Tubes to tubeless with Comstar wheels

Postby nickjtc » Tue Aug 08, 2006 11:41 am

Has anybody had BAD experiences with switching from tubes to tubeless tyres on Comstar wheels?

Mine came stock with tubeless tires. I just double checked a copy of the owners manual to make sure that was stock.

Update: I was lubing my chain today and noticed that my Comstars have "Tubeless Tire Applicable" stamped on them on the center rib that goes around the inside of the rim where the 'spokes' attach to it. Hope this helps.

The Silver Comstars on the European model are tubeless rims, and I'm running them tubeless.
