So i'm looking at a set of Bontrager XR4, they come in two types, wire bead and TLR (Tubeless I assume).

Can I use tube on tubeless tyres? By being tubeless are they a bitch to get on and off should I need to replace the tube?

Cheers.

They will be marginally tighter than some, but not as tight as others (2011 Schwalbes for example), you're fine running tubes. All Bonty kevlar bead tyres are tubeless ready - it was them who came up with it!

What he said, but tubeless tyres don't mean they will be tougher to fit then normal.
