nuther question on tyres

one of my tyres has a slow-to-medium leak

are these tubeless tyres or have they tubes?

or if tubeless and a rim is leaking can you use a tube to stop leak?

Doc, they are tubeless from the factory. Yes putting a tube in one will seal it up unless the rim has sharp metal causing a puncture

thanks for that

I think I'll get a tube in it to avoid the need to constantly pump it up

amazing that even at zero psi it virtually has same height as other one at 3 psi [but wanders around a bit]

dont know if you can it over there, but theres a product called slime that you put in your tire and it works great for fixing slow leaks.

For the Slime do you need to take the tire off or does it go in the air valve?
