April 9, 201015 yr Has anyone changed the rear wheel on a Nuovo from a spoked wheel to an alloy, getting a little sick of punctures from bad tubes. Also like the idea of the self repair kit for tubeless, so changing is the route I would like to go.
April 9, 201015 yr DO you need to change the wheel from spoked just to run tubeless tyres? I dont know what the requirements are exactly, but my bike has tubeless tyre and spoked front wheel

April 10, 201015 yr Are u sure there isnt a tube inside the tubless tyre?The air leaks out the spoke holes so I believe? Havent checked TBH. Just know it says tubeless on the side of the tyre...i also thought it strange having tubeless with spokes
April 10, 201015 yr There are kits to seal a spoke wheel so that you can use a tubeless tire. However this is mostly done for a vintage look. I doubt too many would do this on a small Thai bike. If you look at the valve stem, you will see if there is a tube inside or not.
