Reply to "Rolling Tire Characteristics"

Our tyres dont heat up at 10 mph max. Although I was told when I started measuring to ride around before calibrating. I have never actually been able to measure the effect - it seems it must be too small.

Rolling dough - that is another nice experiment we can do

Seriously though it is a good idea. One way to see what is happening would be to alter the parameters so the effects are much larger and we can easily see them and perhaps photograph the shape. We need to construct a pneumatic tyre from materials which will greatly magnify the effect.
