Some of you may remember I posted a picture of this scoot a couple years ago. It belongs to a guy from Bulgaria that comes here on a student visa each summer along with his girlfriend to work. At the end of summer they put the scooters at an outdoor covered storage and go back home till next summer. This year he was not granted a visa to work but his girlfriend got one and came here by herself. I ended up helping her a bit this summer with her VIP scooter, and since neither her or her boyfriend will be coming back, he wanted me to have the Super49. She was able to sell the VIP. I am kinda excited cause this is the only one of these I have ever seen in person, but I need another project like I need a hole in the head. It might make a nice 2T mina project!

I was not planning on doing anything to this thing immediately, it has been sitting for 1 year. Since I got it started after about 20 kicks, I would like to ride it a bit. But to be able to ride it I have to replace the rear tube, and likely the tire so..... Loving the split rims on this thing, my first experience with them. Gotta do something to the pipe while I have it off right? LoL!

Looking for a tire for this scoot 3.00/10 But I have a question. This setup requires a tube in the tire, Can I use a tire that is TUBELESS with a tube?

Yes, you can use a tubeless tire and a tube. Since you have a split rim, it will be easy.
The problem with trying to get a tube into a tubeless tire is tubeless tires have more plies, making them much stiffer and harder to install the tube on regular rims.
