That sucks. The newer TPU tubes use metal stems and removable valves, which should improve reliability and durability.
Earlier TPU tubes had all kinds of problems, which is why I avoided them.

Not to mention how much dead space is needed in front and behind the parking spot for that SUV.
And in all likelihood, that is a single occupancy vehicle, so the amount of space needed is even more obscene.
What's the context? For example, did they fail by snapping? Or did they fail by not holding air? Or did they melt?
Why do other world leaders put up with this shit?
Literally this. Why not come together and say that they cannot work with criminals? It looks bad on them that they still do, and it continues to give trump legitimacy.
If this helps to reduce dependency on large corporations like Walmart and Amazon, then it can't be done soon enough!
I'm willing to bet that most cyclists crashes cost the cyclist more (i.e. to fix/replace their own bike) than the damage they caused to other things. LOL
No experience with TPU.

Which leads me to the psychological boost. You’re high on an upgrade and you push like a mf.
I was thinking that at first, but then I went out and did it again, then again. Most of these efforts are definitely not pushing it at all... I'm able to sing while breaking personal bests, and this is all in the hoods, not trying to be fast!
But I'm sure there is some psychological push, too. It's hard to control for everything when riding in the real world.
I'll see if this can be sustained over the next several months. I do have a 30km loop that I've specifically planned for benchmarking, so that would be nice to test on.
I guess I'll start pirating things like local news, weather forecasts, and garbage pickup schedules.
In the meantime, I'll continue to self-host what I can, de-couple from online services, and find alternatives to get information from.
Funny thing is, he's still a rapist who is partaking in a massive cover up to conceal the fact that he was involved in Epstein's child sex trafficking empire.
We shouldn't be doing business with him, regardless of whatever "deal" Canada expects to get from this unstable idiot.
That's a great overview. I don't use CO2, and likely never will, so that's a few problems out of the way. LOL
Honestly, as long as these are as reliable as the butyl tubes have been, then I'll be happy. The performance gains are a bonus. The size/weight advantages are a huge plus, too.
Exactly. You don't hear about bikes crashing through buildings and store fronts. Or knocking down road signs. Or power lines. Or bus stop shelters.
Also, "identical" has a different meaning here.
There's a special place in hell for the monster who dreamed up this captcha!
The upgraded model has the same low-end adjustability and a wider wide vs the old style. Yet, it's only compatible with 27.5 - 29"?
Typo?

This makes me mildly infuriating:
A huge percentage of the population doesn't have enough dispodable income to take a single vacation, yet this FAFO situation "will probably" lead to fewer vacations for this woman?
My empathy meter is at near zero, TBH.
That said, fuck any country for not having a healthcare system available to all without having to cost a few vacations.
