Autumn; the traditional time to stock up for the winter ahead. We’ve been out in the fields collecting a bumper harvest of quality movies from among the crop this week.

Kick back, feet up and get your brew and butty ready for this week’s Midweek Mini Movies…

I’d love to see those airless tyres after 100m of typical UK in November muddy bridleway.
That Mexican video is pretty KrAzY! There’s a section in there where it really is one gnarly thing after another!
Hmm Tyres to match your Marin and Sandals. Could be heavy during winter mind.

Is it April 1st?
Liking Cotic’s sense of humor…
That airless tyre video just seems to demonstrate a “tyre” system with absolutely no give in it what so ever! The tread simply doesn’t seem to flex or deform over the terrain, and look at the high fundamental ride frequency where he skids the rear wheel into a turn in slow mo?
I’d hazard a guess that he holes in the airless tyres is to demonstrate & display the theory. While I can understand the current ‘issues’ pointed out here it looks like it’s still at some point in the R&D stages a the moment so perhaps they improve the way they flex as time goes by.
I certainly hope so as I like the look of them
That Mexican Taxco thing is like the downhill version of the TT races. awesome & totally nuts.
