Foss tubes were* so *strange. I don't remember how it worked now but there'was a specific way they needed to be inserted in the tire, and they had a dedicated (and pricey) patch.
My favorite wacky idea was a wheel size between 584(650b) and 622(700c), I believe it was 603. Grant cut a tire, pulled a slice out and sewed it back together to fit on his new wheel to try it. I wish I could remember why he wanted this new standard, someone with that Reader from the mid-'00s can tell us. My favorite wacky idea that made it to production is also a tire, the Speedblend. I miss them! Joe Bernard On Thursday, October 15, 2020 at 4:43:36 PM UTC-7 J L wrote: > Remember Foss tubes? I like that Riv has always tried to be out of the > box.
