Ok... i started a thread on this on Trials-Forum, and it just got out of hand (for a change..).
Anyway, I have this theory that the random slippery powder (similar to talcum power, the stuff you lob between baby's toes after a bath
) inside my 2.5" Hot S rear tyre helps to prevent pinch flats by allowing the tube to slide rather than tearing it. I saw something on a BMX site about this too, they reckoned the same thing.
The reason i started thinking about this was because ive been rimming out harder than ever before trying to kill my cheese rim, and its still not flatted! (25PSI or less, standard MTB tube)
Anyone else?
