Are there modern-ish bikes that still even use tubes?

allot of spoked wheels use tubes. Any tubeless tire can take a tube into it if it has some wierd slice or somin.

Just about every offroad bike. The DRZ uses tubes. I am sure some GS guys that do a lot of offroad run tubes. Too easy to get a cut off asphalt.

$12.50? That's cheap cpnsidering the hassle of changing tires. I'd pay him.
