If I were Joerg, I'd be after steel belted tires. I'll settle for a
flat once every couple years.
(it actaully took half a block to go flat, I could hear something
hitting the chain stay, but couldn't figure it out. The 'pssst' gave
it away a few seconds later.)


Tank tracks. If the bicycle manufacturers only understood how to build bikes, they would spec them with tank tracks. This one little company got it right. https://lunacycle.com/luna-m1-tank-t...onversion-kit/ I've been doing that on my own for years -- with a solid rubber front tire. If you want it done right, you have to do it yourself. It's just like making beer.. Did I mention I make beer? Did I mention mountain lions? Scared cows? God-fearing country-folk? Hors categorie gnar?
