Tubeless Tires

The tubeless tire is designed so that the air is sealed within the rim of the wheel and the tire casing. When an inner tube is used in the tire casing, the air is contained within the tube, while the casing is mainly used to protect the tube and provide traction. A tubeless tire is composed of a carcass, sidewall, and tread.
