Can anyone tell me if these spoked wheels run tubeless please ? 
Spoked wheels
- Thread starter slimpickings
- Start date
Might have might not 
would help if you gave a bit more info lol
basing it on a O400 designator - it just says wheel 40 spokes no mention of a tube
reprom says tube

Reliably informed that it is NOT tubeless the way the spokes are laced to the centre of the rim are the decider.
Info.... a picture saves a thousand words. lol

I’m unsure if you are hoping or want the wheels to be tubeless. A quick, easy and almost free way to convert to tubeless is
Works a treat
I don’t want tubed
In that case surely the video above is the answer to a maiden’s prayer … gets rid of the rubber - or most of it!
They run with tubes. Had same bike swapped to alloys and surprised how much lighter they were.
Tubes, I owned one, definitely tubes.
Almost. apart from wheels of course just needed longer alloy wheel bolts for rear wheel. I also added new brake disc bolts. Took me a while to find the wheels. Got one of ebay and another from Motorworks. Loads on ebay from K series bikes but spokes bend the wrong way as wheel is fitted on other side.
Hello Ted
I am considering buying a r1200r twin cam There are a couple of contenders on E Bay .. F B Bike Market place and Bike Trader
Before I go and view any of them I would like to ask an owner of their experience of them .
I don't ride much in the UK ,the odd sunny day to the coast and back is about it , I do however do a couple of European trips ,this year Italy France Germany , last year Actic circle (never again). Croatia , Montenegro etc
My question, is this a bike that will be OK for these trips ? I am 5'10" ,I try to avoid M Ways and usually ride to posted speed limits
I notice your bike had an extended screen - something I think would be a must for me ... any insight you could impart will be gratefully received
I love the look of your bike in the picture you posted ... I am using it as a measure of the bike I think I would like
The closest I have so far are the 90th anniversary model
