not all tyre is tubeless ... lah....
80/90 is pretty big.... 2.50-2.75 is enough ... Added on July 25, 2007, 1:53 am QUOTE(myhat @ Jul 24 2007, 12:47 PM) haaaa.... i ask the motor shop to give me waranty for the stuff but he decline....that is the one i'm talking about.... thanks dude.... btw...what do u think.....? should i opt for it...or remain with tube style...? do u have any experience using it? what is its pro and cons? 1 thing to remember ... if that thing dont work u have to change tyre which will cost u even more..... cant do anything since the foam will be everywhere...

by the way.. it is not that expensive la.... the rim come in one set... RM 150... bearings RM 100 for 4 including the sub (metal thing to be insert between the bearings in the rim hub ) tyres... that will come all near to RM 350.

Change to tubeless is a good investment. It may cost you some money but it will save you a lot of hassle in the future. Quite important if you must use your bike everyday to go to work.
Road are dangerous these days. There are people putting nails on the roadside to puncture motocycists tyres. These people usually make money from this. Offering roadside service and charge you extra for it. |

yesterday i went to a shop nearby my house....
just making some survey on how much should i spend if i want to change to tubeless.... along the discussion....the mechanic there keep mentioning about using better rims for my bike... just to ensure better quality and durability... he keep mentioning a brand called as Racing Boy... is this brand really good? and this mechanic also calculated the estimated cost.... approx RM350 complete... then when I started to leave the shop, another guy happen to be there, who has heard my conversation with the mechanic, advised me to go to Sentul, where I can get rims with cheaper price... but I'm not that familiar with Sentul area.... is it true Sentul got a lot of spare parts shop? please help.... thanks |

Just need your humble opinion.
Went to a bike shop in PG, recently to quote cost of upgrading my Wave 100R's stock tires to tubeless. Was told RM330 for 2 tubeless (forgot wat brand) and 2 all-white Racing Boy rims. Is it worth it? |
