Here's a link to a page that has a new idea for airless tires. Measurers plagued by flats, take note.

All I found was a picture. Is there a link to a page with text, so we can read about it?
Thanks.
Thanks.
I've used several kinds of airless tires over the years, and this one looks potentially better than any I've had and abandoned.
It remains to be seen whether the ride quality is good and whether the tire size changes a lot with temperature.
Could be a winner.

It appears that it may be inconsistent in diameter. Although, the video when it was on the hub didn't seem to show much flex.
Interesting concept. If you measure with mtn bike tires, this could be an option. The holes in the tire wouldn't matter to us, much, since we won't be riding in mud for a measurement, or deep gravel.
Now, if they had it in road-bike sizes....

These tires would have come in handy for a recent off-road measurement I did. Carbon nanotubes? I can imagine what the price of these babies might be.
I am thinking this may be a more efficient solution to the flat tires and changing tire size issue: Tire Solution
