I need a replacement front tyre & have been offered a deal on on a 120/70 19 but mine has a 110/80 19 fitted.  Is this compatible?
Also, mine has spoked wheels so will it be tubeless or tubed?
Many thanks

Compatible ? No, and spoke wheels have tubes

For added clarity,  for a 120/70 you need a 3.00 rim, the Girly Front rims are 2.5

Thanks very much for your advice.  I'll pass on the cheap tyre.
