Ben Hur landing leg tire

Post by D6c » Thu Apr 22, 2021 1:48 pm

Found a laning leg for my Ben Hur but without a tire. Do you think if I used this tire and tube it would work ok?
(discard the tubless rim)

As I said, I was planning on discarding the tubeless rim. I have the original wheel and was just planning on using the tubeless tire with a tube.

Sorry, I mis-read your post. I thought you were looking for the entire wheel assembly. I have no idea if that tire would fit your original rim.
