Default 23" Spoke wheel problem. Need HELP

I purchased a 23" spoked wheel, but cannot find an inner tube to fit it. Any suggestions?

I also purchased a Avon 23x3.50 Tire, but it's radial and am being told by mechanic that a spoked wheel will is not made for this tire, since it is radial.

Any suggestions on what to do? I do not want to switch to mags. How are the 23" spoked wheel guys doing this

Thank in advance

You can run tubeless if the wheel is setup for it. I've run both my wheels tubeless since 2011 with Metzeler tires. I have used up 1 rear tire and still on same front tire.

Do it..... Don't worry about the tube!

I had mammoth spokes on my street glide, never had one single problem!
