## Questions & Answers

**Q: I can use it as rear tube less tire?**
A: The tire fits a 21 inch rim and is only a couple inches wide. 1. You don't have a 21 inch rear rim 2. If you're asking this please stay off motorcycles.

A: Simple Answer is Bias Ply or Bias Belted
It looks like that one is a Bias Ply according to any thing I could find

From Wikipedia :  https://www.tirebuyer.com/education/understanding-tire-sizes-and-types
This code specifies the dimensions of the tire, and some of its key limitations, such as load-bearing ability, 

and maximum speed. Sometimes the inner sidewall contains information not included on the outer sidewall, 

and vice versa.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Look under (More info included in the tire size) for radial / bias-ply Info
If there's a D instead of an R, the tire has a bias ply construction -  In belted tires (marked as B)
