  5. MTB Guru Tubeless conversion

    Tubeless Conversion

    R400.00

    R400 will Convert your Rims to Tubeless. You can either use your existing Tyres. On condition they are in a reasonable state!!! OR Buy Tubeless Tyres, Drop your Wheels off, and collect them the next day. Slime Tubes are not as effectice as Tubeless when it comes to fiting the battle of thorns. Non Tubeless tyres do not have the sidewall strength of Tubeless Tyres, but they will work just fine. I know of many competitive riders who succesfully use none Tubeles tyres as Tubeless to save weight. Learn More
