Do they fit ok?
I'm waiting for my new wheels, and only have my winter tyres on my 819's and don't want to disturb the set up and lose the Bonty Juice.

Want to fit some 'normal' tyres I have for a weekend away. But like I said I don't want to take things apart to find nothing fits.

they'll fit but you can transfer most of the juice to the new tyres if you are careful, obviously its easier if you are just swapping rims and keeping the same tyres. You will probably need a top up though

normal tires fit fine on my UST 819, sometimes a bit easier than ust tyres because they dont have such a tight bead because they dont need an airtight seal. certainly not had any issues getting non UST tyres on or off.

Just going to put tyres and tubes on the 819's but did'nt want to upset a good working tubeless set up if they were'nt gonna fit.

erm, why? why not just use the winter tyres before until your new UST's come? you'll have to remove the valves etc
