    Tubeless tire on spoke rims ?

    Hey all..... Can I run Tubeless tires on spoke rims ? I will put an inner tube in the tire, but are the beads ok ? In other words, as long as I put tubes in the tubeless tires, they will work on spoke rims..........RIGHT????

      Don't forget to put a rim tape to protect the tube from possible chaffing from the spoke ends/nuts

      Don't say can't, as anything is possible with time and effort, but, if you don't have time things get tougher and require more effort.

          Instead of the rubber rim tape we used 100mph duct tape (the good cloth stuff). Just rip it down the middle and do one layer and use other side to do one more layer. Seals it better than rubber rim protector. Only down side after awhile the glue stays there when u peel the tape off. Just a suggestion.
