Thanks guys. I just took it out for a spin and when I went to check on the air pressure, I noticed on the tire sidewall that it did say "tubeless".. Good! No.... I don't want a tube. One of the main deciding factors of getting the Falcon was that it came with a tubeless tire. I hate tire tubes. Had a bad spill a couple of years ago on a new, at the time, mountain bike with fat tires. Going pretty fast on this, thank God, very smooth sidewalk when the front tire exploded like someone had shot the damn thing and I landed on my left hip and slid quite a ways.. Luckily, nothing broken. Just a few scrapes. So, no, I prefer NO tire tubes..
