That looks great. I wonder how far that is from being commercially available.

Might want to ignore or correct the 'found spelling'.. While I suppose there is the chance they've hit upon a novel material that'll provide the same riding performance of pneumatic rubber in cycling applications, the bumph about 'storing energy from bumps to make the wheel spin faster' sounds like something-for-nothing wishful thinking...
 
I don't see the point myself.

Puncture fairy?

Schmuncture Fairy!

You callow fools and children of witchcraft can fear the puncture all you want. I do not fear the puncture.

I laugh at this cloistered monstrosity of a not-tyre in the attached video.

I laugh at the puncture and I laugh at the superstitious fools who tremble at its mention.

There's no way I'm going to get a puncture this week.

Touch wood....

And you vary your tyre pressure to best deal with the terrain at hand how?

Illiterate SEO. Correcting but it should be removed from Wiki as marketing.

I think I got all the correct warnings at the top :whistle:
