I want to use this as an add on, but I don't need the wheel. Can I take the wheel off and attach tubes instead?

Yes you can! That said, It really is my favorite feature because it's a really large enough for a bigger hamster! A lot of wheels that come with their cages are not

yep!!! you can attach tubes to either port. In fact, I wouldn't recommend using the water bottle or the wheel - they both seem kinda crappy and dangerous to me. I have several of these that I use as add ons and love them - they make especially good sand bath areas as you don't get sand spilled all over the place. You may consider getting the blue ovo maze if you can find it for a similar price - it's the exact same thing except the buttons that lock it are blue instead of lime green and it doesn't come with all that extra stuff.

I am sure you can but will check with my niece. I bought it for her hamster and it lives elsewhere!

I checked with my niece and yes she took hers out also because they had another in the other part of the set up. So the answer is Yes!

You can definitely remove the wheel & just put tubes or a window on the side that the wheel is attached. I have the Ovo Suite attached to this & rearrange the tubes/homes every time I clean it! :)

yes you can use tubes for tubeless tires but you should make sure tires don't have anything in them that can make tubes go flat also make sure wheels are clean

I wouldn't you would need to remove the fenders and keep in mind that the wheels have only one nut holding it onto the hub.

Yes, you can assemble the unit with or without the wheels. Plastic plugs are provided to replace them.

You won't have to take the wheels off...depends on the model as far as handle...but it is very easy to do. You take it off and everything fits perfectly.

No, it is designed for use on tubeless rims (which I had) or I suppose you could also use with a tube if necessary

It will not require a tube if there is not damage to the rim it is being put on. The valve stem and valve core also have to function properly.

I have spoked wheels so or me it was tubed. I believe it could be installed tubeless as well.I will add that I have been riding on it for several weeks now and am still impressed.

Hi! I wanted to do exactly the same thing but the current design does not allow for it because the wheels are on the inside of the frame, so I drilled new holes on the other sides and put the wheels on the outside. Works great now! Hope that makes sense.

The wheel attaches to the tubes. It would have been nice to have a additional option for it to attache to the cage directly.

No, it is rather confusing. However there is a U-Tuble Video for putting on the rear wheel that I found helpful. The Ride is worth the assembly! Might be easier if one were more mechanically inclined than I am. Rear tire inner tube blew after about 8 rides. I replaced it with a heavier quality tube. So had to take off wheel and reassemble. that's when a dealer helped me discover the U-Tube which helped. Bert

There is an opening. The wheel is separate from the tube so you'll need 2 of the openings freed (one is for the tube and another for the wheel)

No, you don't need anything else to put the chains on.The tire and rim are not included

I can not answer this question, it is necessary to remove the wheel and alienate it from the base

My bike DOES have a quick release wheel, so I can't say for sure if it's possible to use the trainer without a quick release wheel (not sure how the wheels might differ). Sorry I can't be of more help.

Unfortunately the base will not easily bolt to your tube assembly so I would recommend that you attach it to the flat portion of your tube ring with one bolt. I hope that this was helpful!

I used this tire with a tube. Not sure of it can be used without. It might be able to, it has a good bead around the rim.
