Those solid tubes available for paki bike tyres?

[AbbasJin]

I was watching this bikes show on Discovery channel last night, called BBB.

anyway, they showed some desert racing bikes.
one of the bikes had those SOLID tubes in its tyres, as they stated the reason that they cant afford a flat tyre inside the middle of a race in the desert.

I am sick of puncture tyres, not that i face them often, my DELUXE had its rear tube punctured just once in the past 3 months since i got it, but still i would love to get those tubes for my bike.

any idea where i can get those from in RWP/ISB (if any )

then i can trust my bike to go anywhere without fearing a flat tyre.

@Abbasjin

Those tube can serve in deserts as the sand is soft but if u use these tubes on a road & specialy in Pakistani road then it would be harm ful for ur bikes rims & suspension.
On the other hand it will gives u backache as well

But...there should be something like that............
punctures wala silsala khatam hona chahiye

@imranbhatti,
yara i think tubless tyres ARE available for bikes also.
i havn't done any research but i think nobody knows here much about them so i am gonna have to google up all the info myself when i am free.

about head ache's, they shouldn't be a problem. these tubes can be soft/hard depending on their make and type.

@Farhansa,
dude thats what i want. I dont like punctures... and then dragging the bike to the nearest puncture-wala.
Tubeless tyres, or solid tubes, i need one of those for my DELUXE.

time to get rid of punctures foreva!

^ Tubeless tires are a great choice. I had one in my FZR but even a day after I had enough air in the tire to drive it all the way to the puncture wala. Imagine dragging a sport bike with a punctured tire, HORRIBLE!!

i ran out of fuel once

[7thgear]

^ And you were quite far from the filling station? What an unlucky day!

[foosa]

2 km...on one occasion

1.5km on the other one

[7thgear]

You are a usual customer then...

[foosa]

cant help it...the fuel gauge gives incorrect info :D...and im too lazy to get it fixed...hence all the travelling and exercise :P..pretty tough to walk with a 150kg bike :D...how much does ur bike weighs ?

[7thgear]

Mine is 215 dry weight and around 265kg with full tank, oil and coolant. Old bikes were so heavy. A modern R1 is slightly heavier than my 250, and well the 600s are even smaller and lighter..

[AbbasJin]

i ALWAYS keep the reserve fuel aside, normally when i run outta fuel and start using the reserve, i get my bike reFueled withing the first 5-10 KMs, although the reserve fuel is enough for 90 KMs

7th gear, u know where to get the solid tube or Tubeless tyres in Pindi/Isloo?

[7thgear]

^I am not sure if there are tubeless tires for a Deluxe. It is possible that some trail bike or something might have a similar tire size and you might find some tubeless tires, but even in that case it won't work on your bike. You'll need rims that are especially designed for tubeless tires, without the specific rims it is useless to look for tubeless tires..

[AbbasJin]

can i get the WHOLE PACKAGe in pindi/Isloo? i can happily get the rims changed also if new ones, supporting tubless tyres/solid tubes can fit on those new rims.

[c123pk]

I once had a CD 200 with tubeless tyres front was 19" and the rear one was 16"

Hi,

I was wondering if you are talking about Tube-Less or Run-Flat tires??

Regards,
MSKHAN

[foosa]

we are talking bout tubeless...but run flats work just as good...are they avalable for bikes in pk :P?

[AbbasJin]

so anybody knows if there tubeless tyres, solid-tube based tyres, available somewhere in TWIN CITIES for Deluxe?? or someother bike (atleast compatible with DELUXE)
