I've always wondered the same. Only difference I can tell with the looks of the tyres is that these aren't folding tyres as they must have a word bead, but the bead profile is the same as a tubeless one.

Cheers for the info, it's good to know someone out there has given the tyres ago as tubeless. I'm going to give mine ago now for summer and save the Michelin E wilds (which seem a great tyre after 455miles) for winter.

Is that the Comp or team issue your running ? If it's the Comp then I'm going to give it a go

Cheers for the info but I already use it tubeless like the rest of my bikes. I bought some Michelin E wilds before I even rode the bike and re taped the rims with gorilla tape, I always use Stans sealant. I was just wanting to know if anyone else had run these xr4 comp as tubeless before I have...

No I thought most tyres on bikes like this would be tubeless but these don't say it on the sidewall bit the bead looks the right shape. Maybe it was old stock Trek had and had to chuck them on it to get the bikes out

When I picked my new Trek rail 5 up in February I was all set to make it tubeless only to find the tyres didn't say TLR on them. So I thought that's crap and bought a set of Michelin E Wilds and popped them on. After 400 miles on the bike I was thinking again about the XR4 Comps that came on it...

I obviously asked about one like I said in November and they was on back order and £540 So I'm guessing it will still be the same now, the hardest thing was trying to get a shop to help. Only shop that answered me was Wheelbase so you could give them a try.

Thats good that Focus have contributed towards the cost of the battery. My internal Battery started to charge back up to 100% again a few months ago so was all good again but I have now sold the bike and replaced it with a Trek rail 5 625wh

Early days yet but they feel ok at the moment.

Well I'm now 2 weeks and 115miles into ownership of a new 2021 Trek rail 5 sx 625wh bike and liking it up to yet although still getting used to it after coming from a Focus Jam2 with the shimano e8000 motor. First job was to replace the none tubeless tyres and fit a pair of Michelin E Wilds...

Thanks for this Derek but as I found out no one can read a focus own make (Derby cycles) battery health/charge cycles, just it's state of charge.

I hear what your saying with the range changing, which it does when I'm riding like it will do more range when I'm not doing any climbing but that's not what I'm on about. I use Stunlocker to look at the amount of charge that is in the battery once fully charged and it's only been showing 91%...

Well something very strange has happened. Rode last Sunday, frame battery and tech pack charged. Used tech pack first until it went too 1 red bar after 22 miles (not flat, just onto thw red) Swap to internal battery and did another 12 miles and this only dropped 1 bar. Out on Wednesday and...

I managed to find out the other week. £540 and not available untill sometime in January

Yes I love the bike buy the after sales service from Focus (derby cycles is terrible)
