I've recently got some Mr Tuffy tyre liners. They look idea - light, strong, no sharp edges etc.
Fitted one to the back wheel of my SS.
It may not have been in perfectly as although its for a 700 x 23 there was some overlap at the ends and the sides weren't perfect either (very hard to get it absolutly right in there).
I inflated the tyre to 110psi (rated at 120psi).
Anyway - I was out for a training ride and BANG!! A blow out.
Stripped the tube out. No reason tyre wise for it to happen.
Changed it etc.
Rode about half a km and BANG !! Another one.
This one was in a different spot where the tyre had a hole(should've replaced it earlier!). The tyre liner should've created a barrier between the tube & the hole though
Anybody tried Mr Tuffys?
Success? Problems etc?
I'm going to try to email them and see if there is something I'm doing wrong or whatever (I followed the instructions).
