divxrippimp Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 I just started trials biking, as in i ordered my bike and don't have it yet, lol... Im big into bmx and wanted to do trials...I heard about tubeless tires, and i have a couple questions...1.) Do tubeless tires fit into trials at all? they sound bad ass...2.) If using a tubeless tire on whatever type of bike you use it on, does it need specific rims? or how does it work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krisboats Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 Not gonna happenIgnore him, he obvously knows shit all Tubeless tyres generally require a sealed, tubeless specific rim. You put the tyre on the rim and pour the gunk in and inflate. However, fatmike actually managed this, as did other riders, quite successfully by using a cut up inner tube as the seal inside an ordinary trials rim. Apparantly his party trick was sticking screwdrivers through the tyre without getting a puncture.I'm pretty sure he posted a guide on here on how to do it as well.
