Yes, tubeless tires do require air to function properly.
No, CFCs are not used in tubeless tires. CFCs (Chlorofluorocarbons) are ozone-depleting substances that have been phased out due to environmental concerns. Tubeless tires rely on a sealing system that does not require CFCs for their operation.
Tubeless ready tires have a special bead design that allows them to be set up tubeless with sealant, while tubeless tires are already airtight and do not require a tube. Tubeless ready tires are more versatile and can be used with or without a tube, making them a better option for most bikes.
No, it is not possible to put tubeless tires on any rim. Tubeless tires require specific rims that are designed to be airtight without the need for an inner tube. Attempting to put tubeless tires on rims that are not designed for them can result in safety hazards and performance issues.
Tubeless tires are designed to be used without an inner tube, while tubeless ready tires can be used with or without a tube. Tubeless tires are typically lighter and provide better puncture resistance, but may require more maintenance. Tubeless ready tires offer the flexibility to switch between tubeless and tubed setups. The best option for your bike depends on your riding style and preferences. If you prioritize performance and are willing to invest in maintenance, tubeless tires may be the better choice. If you prefer versatility and convenience, tubeless ready tires could be more suitable.

Not all bike tires have tubes. Some bikes have tubeless tires, which do not require an inner tube to hold air.
Tubeless tires do not require an inner tube, as the tire itself forms an airtight seal with the wheel rim. This design reduces the risk of punctures and allows for lower tire pressure. Tires with tubes, on the other hand, have an inner tube that can be punctured and may require more maintenance. The choice between tubeless and tires with tubes depends on your vehicle and preferences. Tubeless tires are generally more suitable for off-road and high-performance vehicles, while tires with tubes are more common in standard vehicles.
No, clincher tires are not compatible with tubeless rims.
Some alternative options for bicycle tires that do not require a flat inner tube include solid rubber tires, tubeless tires, and airless tires.
No, tubeless tires are designed to be used without inner tubes. Using tubes with tubeless tires can cause damage and compromise performance.
No, wire bead tires cannot be converted to tubeless.
No, tubeless tires are designed to be used without tubes. Running tubeless tires with tubes installed can cause issues with performance and safety.
