I've run Hoosier 9" radial slicks and either 27" or 28" fronts for 15+ years. Never had a flat due to leakage. I may have lost a few lbs a couple of times after extended periods between races, but temperature changes or a shrader valve may have been the main causes. No tubes in front or back. I haven't run their bias ply slicks.

Before Hoosier, I use to coat the insides of slicks (sidewalls) from other brands with dish soap to get away from heavy tubes.
