Thats nasty, give him a bike pump to fit it & charge an entry fee to watch. Good start on a retirement fund ;D

also Been looking at the new dunlop trials tyre, heard good things about the new one and seem cheap as, i reckon there only about $120 trade, and sticky as all hell
-
Just for the sake of price comparison: Moto Central just quoted me $199 for a Michelin trails tyre, $175 for a Dungflop, $155 for a Pirelli, and $125(?) for a decent Chinese/Thai/Taiwanense thingy (sorry, can't recall the brand).
Apparently the Pirelli is the only one that always works properly on a non-tubeless rim.

michy 175.00
pirelli 130.00
vee rubber 105.00
dunlop 150.00

Why are you worried about a non-tubless rim ? Just say tubed rim.....
your not running a modern trials so G.A.F......
YOU can run tubes in the tubless anyway, and on Dt you wont notice the differance infact i have found the tubless cases runs better with the tubes, i think the walls or bead is differant somehow but they stand up taller, or should i say dont fold over as low on the wall, when you push them down to 8psi and run around radius corner.
You watch even a 250F on a Dt track and you can see the tyre sits almost at right angle as its comes off the contact patch, you'd swear it was about to peel the tyre off, there is that much flex in trials tyres.....

Simply regurgitating what I was told:
The tubeless tyres have a different bead, so they sit in deeper on a tubed rim. This means that they sometimes won't seat properly, and sometimes will drop even deeper off the bead of the rim.
