I thus commuted on 250g silk Clements and when I went on bike tour in 1980 switched to the heavier 290g Campionato del Mundo Setas, also silk. The tubes sewn in were very thin and porous so they'd lose about 30psi a day. Sew-ups were damn quick to change if you had a flat but were slow as the dickens to repair. Still, having just put on a set of 450g (each) tires plus however many grams the tubes and rim tape are, a 290g tire/tube combo sounds pretty cool. Of course, I also weigh a lot more now than I did then so would probably blow out $125 silk tires every other week riding to work. I haven't ridden a sew-up since about 1981.

Those tires had silk linings and cotton casings. Long ago, they changed those materials and closed that chapter of cycling history.<br /><br />Haven't almost all the Pro Tour teams gone tubeless?<br /><br />wishiwasmerckxnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-69839349681671641322016-07-11T17:53:22.018-04:002016-07-11T17:53:22.018-04:00now to really bore you.i got a flat while on my us...now to really bore you.i got a flat while on my usual ride from home to newburgh and back,on Friday.i haven't had a flat in years...I mean years.anyways...I had my spare tube...futzed(?) with the rim,tire,tube....I started using my mini pump...no how,no way..no friggin' air getting in.it's hot..it's humid...now i'm starting to hear rumbles of thunder......oh,great.under trees...near the water.well,walked home...a mile and a half to home.guess what?still had fun....Zzzzz.....hope all you have fun when you're not.bad boy of the northnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-83340779053029285962016-07-11T17:52:10.175-04:002016-07-11T17:52:10.175-04:00Freddy Murcks I just thought it was interesting th...Freddy Murcks I just thought it was interesting that someone who formerly worked for Mike Sinyard could get his blessing on something like that instead of a cease and desist letter.Lieutenant Obliviousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-73906570494703989212016-07-11T17:39:33.023-04:002016-07-11T17:39:33.023-04:00Dear Mr. Caral @ 4:47 --
