I havent read the article, but they have stopped manufacturing unpuncturable tires, as tubes are the main income source of bike shops. It is possible to make tires that will not get punctured in 10000km.
- ofalkaed 4y agoBike shops make like $0.25 on a tube, there is little profit in them and you are conflating tires and tubes. Any proper touring tire will be very puncture resistant if you don't mind the increased rolling resistance, I have only gotten one flat with Marathon Mondial's and that was an installation failure, my fault.
- Euphorbium 4y agoI am passing on what the bike shop owner said, when I went looking for unpuncturable tires. They sell a ton of inner tubes.
