If you are thinking about picking up something from our list of the best road bike wheels for this summer's riding, you may well be thinking about tubeless. Sure, you could run a tube, but from a performance standpoint alone tubeless pips tubes. You can choose between hookless, or one of a few options that have retained a hooked design and you get all the benefits that tubeless brings with it: Run lower pressures for a faster, more comfortable, ride with less possibility of a puncture. If you do get a puncture it might seal without you ever knowing, and if not you can use a plug kit or even put in a tube if you have to. The only drawback is tubeless tyre setup.
