I note that I can buy a couple of kinds of plastic strip
to put in under the tyres, guaranteed to prevent punctures.
One type is called "Slime" (it's sort of greenish), the other
"Nix Panne" (meaning no punctures). They look like plastic,
but I wonder what (supposedly) makes them so strong. Anyone
know what material they are made of? Where I live, there is
a fair amount of flint chips on the road, and these needle
shaped bits even get through Kevlar, so how come... ?
