In case anyone knows: I read somewhere that smugglers "inflate" their vehicle tires with some sort of hardening sealant (Silicone? Construction foam?) that makes the tires bullet-proof. What material is it and how do they get it in there thoroughly enough? Would it be good for a couple of thousand miles? Well, if weight really isn’t an issue, people do already make airless/ air-free bicycle tires. Foam rubber of varying density to simulate different air pressures. I had a friend who considered them some years back, but they *really* are not light. -- "Also . . . I can kill you with my brain." River Tam, Trash, Firefly I think that we should encourage Joerg to buy these things and learn for himself that weight is an issue. |
