Stupidly big Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Hey, I've heard about a few people running these to save weight, are they REALLY worth the puncture risk? is there any websites what sell them cheap? like in a bulk of 10 or so?Are they fixable if you get a puncture? and how much weight can you save over Specialized/Tesco innertubes?Or would it just be worth cutting a few side knobbles off my Try-All tyres?Cheers so far.

joshlyd1 Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Weight weeny like me I would say that you only get lots of punctures if your pressures are too low .I would say if you do street to cut them i used wire snips they left just enough grip too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT! Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 I'm pretty sure Ali C is the sexpert on these and IIRC they wouldn't hold air pressure for very long and punctured very easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stupidly big Posted September 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 Hehe, thanks for the replys guys.I think I'll stick to normal innertubes for now, might try some latex ones in the future though . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
