TUBELESS

I'm considering to buy MAVIC'S tubeless wheels. I'VE heard two merits of TUBELESS. Less likely to
punk. Bound like suspention. These are true? Please give me some advise.

What does "punk" mean in this context?

Ture, that's easy for you to say...

Less likely to get punctures of course! Does anyone have experience with this (i.e ride in a
puncture-prone area)?

 

According to data on mishaps at www.AnalyticCycling.com, tubulars go an average of about 300 miles
between mishaps and clinchers last about 500 miles. This database is publically available at the
following URL:

http://www.analyticcycling.com/TiresDataAnalysis_Page.html

(To duplicate the above numbers, select tubulars or clichers and then select all causes of mishaps
except wornout.}

Your mileage may vary.
