Anyone know what b'vean is?
My wife's new motorbike, a Zoomer, didn't have a b'vean. She got one yesterday for $5. I haven't got a clue what she's talking about.
TIA

Obviously a b'vean is a clue. You haven't got one but fortunately she has.

ពោះវៀន?
Intestines perhaps?
According to my wife this is the Khmer for motorbike tire inner tubes.
A Google search for ពោះវៀន ម៉ូតូ surely enough brings up photos of tires and inner tubes, (and of course motorbike accident victims whose intestines have escaped their bodies)
However, I thoght that Zoomers used tubeless tires?

Thanks Rama, I think you've nailed it.
She did mention that her Zoomer just had air, but no b'vean.

Just to add regarding Zoomers not having inner tubes, the local mechanic told her that she needed one.

No inner tube but has air? So it has only tire? Or you meant the air was 5$?

Tube-less tires are tires that are just the tire. There is no inner-tube (b'vean) as it is not needed.
The inner-tube cost $5. Who would pay $5 for air?
