I like the spokes but I don't like it that they are not tubeless

ORIGINAL: inkaholic

What I'm probably going to end up doing is throwing a solid wheel on the back like the night train, and keep the front spoked.
That's what I sorta did. Found a '92 Sporty mag-type rear on E-Bay for about $50. When the front wire needs work, I'll try to scrounge another one for up there.

I like the classic looks of the wires, but generally ride enough to appreciate the tubeless aspect of the mag-type. And I ain't payin' for the tubeless wires, either!
