What about tubed tires?

=====================

It ballances tube tires just fine but is a little less effective at sealing punctures with tubes vs tubeless tires but still good enough that i'd run it with tube tires.

See Run On link posted earlier in this thread for details.

Guessing that if the bike sits through the winter the stuff will settle at the bottom till the first ride again. And then it'll wobble till it spreads out again.

==================

Short term definately not the case.

when you look on the Ride On site of pics with tire removed from wheel to show whats going on the ride on is neately spread out mostly in tire and not on rim looking like it hasnt collected anywhere.

But sitting for months on end for winter storrage dont know.

But when ya run dyna beads with nothing really to hold them in place i bet some of not most drop to bottom of the tire every time you stop and nobody worries about it in that case.

Even if the run on did run down to bottom of tire over time as soon as you rode a few miles it would even back out ballancing the tires again.

My bike has sat for a few days in between rides with the Run On and so far there's no vibration when i take the bike out after sitting a few days.

Quote from Ride-On website:
"These commercial customers demand that our products not damage their aluminum, steel wheels, or tires. As their tires can last upwards of 250,000 miles, it is essential that Ride-On not harm tire ply materials or cause loss of adhesion strength."

Ok, where do I buy these tires at that last up to 250,000 miles
