[QUOTE="CDA, post: 105201, member: 103"] True, but they need to be replaced like anything else. Plus I would not recommend any hwy, high speeds with one of these. They heat up and cause havoc. When racing the 1000, they changed a section of the course on us and we ended up doing a 5 mile stretch of pavement that was supposed to be dirt. Since we were averaging over 60 the whole time on the pavement, the tube heated up and caught on fire. It destroyed the tire and since we were miles from the next pit, we rode it on the rim and until the rim gave out leaving us with a hub. So you can see we did not have the greatest experience with that setup.. But if I was to ride an event like Erzberg, I would mount them up again. [/QUOTE]
