So we decided to drive tubeless Continental tyres HCS 14.00R20
- Width = 377 mm
- Diameter = 1268mm
- Inch = 20″
- Weight = 83,63 kilo
- Pressure = 8 Bar max.
Hutchinson rims
We drive 0.00×20 Hutchinson 2-piece aluminum rims. Hutchinson type 1233 are very strong tubeless aluminum wheels. They weight only 35 kg.
Load capacity 5600 kg.
We can change a tyre without special tools, even in the middle of nowhere.

Specification rims:

Bead locks
Inside the tyres we have Hutchinson Beadlock rings. These make it possible to inflate the lyres to 1 Bar or even less. They also make it a lot easier to fill the tyres with air after a tire change.
We have one complete spare wheel, tyre and rim, and also a spare tyre. I get very nervous having no spares after replacing one flat tyre.
