For years and periodically, tubeless tires have been offered for all vehicles: their adoption is struggling to reach its completion (perhaps due to the producers' interests in having greater wear of this product to encourage quicker replacement: it's a sin to think badly, but sometimes you can guess).
However, perhaps the time has come for bikes to say goodbye to annoying punctures and more or less makeshift remedies for inflating punctured tyres.
Britek Tire and Rubber has been working for 6 years on a special type of tire based on a lightweight carbon fiber structure, with a special rubber coating. They certainly have wear, but they don't get punctured. Never. And they have a response in terms of cushioning that is completely similar to that of traditional tyres.
[highlight]Automatic adjustment -[/highlight] There's more: the special structure allows the cyclist to 'adjust' the hardness of the wheel as he would for the gearbox.
I know that cyclists will welcome news like this with a bit of skepticism: it's understandable, given the numerous false alarms in the recent past: it will also be necessary to verify the response of a similar product in relation to real usage scenarios, and so it doesn't seem like a bad idea to evaluate the potential benefits of this product with a little clarity.
