Many moons ago I asked you lot if there would be a market for fat bike tyre liners. You all said no, no-one would want that.

Well look here

And at that RRP I coulda been a millionaire this time next year

So your riding a bike with tyres that have their own gravitational field and you want to make them heavier..................

Note that most of the comments on the MTBR thread say that tubeless is better.

I haven't tried tire liners, but one of the big advantages that a fatbike tire has is a large contact patch which conforms to the surface. This generates a lot of grip. But I think that those tire liners would affect this in a negative way.

Many moons ago

Think that's the problem right there, things move on... In this case, to tubeless...

Think yourself lucky you didn't sink a load of cash into it, have you read the comments on that link ?

Mr tuffy was probably one of the people who told you it was a terrible idea - while at the same time putting it on his list of things to do

No, you got advice, and the other one didn't.
