Tire question

My local LBS has Kenda Nevegal tires, the packaging says 'Tubeless', I havent upgraded to tubeless setup yet. Can I run these tires with tubes?
Thanks!

yes you can but there is a weight gain for tubless tires (imo signifigant) so if you plan on goin tubless then go for it, but if you plan on staying with tubes for a while then i'd just get regular tires

that's the cool thing about tubeless tires. you can run them either way. they're just a little heavier than you need for tubes, though.
