MITAS E07 Tread failure

[BiG DoM]

ja like a hare or rabbit 

[JJBotes]

En dan wat maak ek met die tyre wat sover 10km gery het???   


Ek worry nie oor presure verloor nie. Wat is die ander gevaar?

Yes sorry take it off! The E-10 is tubeless not the E-07. I understand what you are saying but as Mitas I need to tell you its the wrong tyre! Danger....if you do have a flat and an accident as a result. You run the risk of a cleaver assessor noticing this and denying the claim  . Ultimately this is your call ! 

And on all the GS/GSA's , should we all take them off ?

[JJBotes]

I just fitted E07's (with center strip)


Will keep my eye on them.

you made a good purchase and we see many happy kms!

Still a good choice ?

[Manic]

I dont know why but I get the idea the GS tyre size is tubeliss and the bigger wheels on the KTM is tubed?

Can be wrong also.

Just Bike & Tyre fitted EO7's front and back to my bike both are tubeless !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Have just got back from bash and done more that 2000km no problems
Rear tyre is getting those cracks again though!!!

Mine also both tubeless.  Fitted at Wicked bikes in Milnerton. (Outridetrs didn't have stock)

your front is not a 21 inch. As I have seen it, only the E07 90/90/21 is a tube tyre. I know a few people running the 21 inch on a tubless setup without shit so far.

I've been running the E07 for three years. Current set has 22,000 klms and now need replacing. Never had a problem, good tyres IMO

[De Jager]

Been running E07 on both my previous XT's and will be fitting another tomorrow

No the 110/80-19 tyres are tubeless. ONLY the 90/90-21 Mitas E-07 tyres are TT. If you are ever unsure check the sidewall of your tyres it will tell you if it's TT or TL! Once again only the 90/90-21 Mitas E-07 front tyre it a tube type tyre, the 110/80-19 fronts and rears are tubeless!

Eish...you have to be SO careful what you say on line. We are talking about a 90/90-21 fitted to a KTM 1190 which has tubeless rims. I say that this Mitas tyre is not Tubeless and then suddenly all Mitas tyres are not tubeless. My fault I should be more specific! If you are ever unsure check the side wall for the markings ! TT stands for tube tyre (it will also have "Tube type tyre" on the sidewall!) TL stands for Tubeless tyre and yes you can also fit a tube to a Tubeless tyre  .

[Sam]

........ and yes you can also fit a tube to a Tubeless tyre  .

Unless the tubeless tyre is a radial.....then you're looking for trouble

Thanks to all for clarifying.  I rather ask a stupid quistion than end up with a blow-out.

Ja also got a 90/90 - 21 E09 the other day for my HP2 and noticed it was TT and then swapped it for a E10 TL rather than take the chance.

Why?

Me too

as far as I know you can.

Done all the time on cars.

and yes they are radials

Edit: Apologies, I only notice the rest of the thread clarified the panic.

Please take the E-07 front as it is not Tubeless...not sure who fitted it but you will probably loose pressure with it![/qoute]

Sheesh!? Really?! The okes that fitted my E10 front without a tube!?

On the Mitas website is the following: "All sizes will be available only as tubeless and in category T (speeds of up to 190 km/h)."

I'm not second guessing you, just hoping you can expand on the use of a Inner tube for the E10 when on the front, please?

E10 front is tubeless. I think it was clarified that the E07 90/90/21 is the one that is not tubeless. Talk about herding cats! 

[Genesis115]

Absolutely love this discussion. Some advise here. Now with the rainy season starting and the e07 has a issue with wet tar what suggestions you guys have?
