I use a bicycle for my paper route and I have a problem with flat tires. Does anyone know about kevlar bike tires? I just wondered how much protection they provide. Do Bell kevlar tires work all that great? I need something totally puncture proof! I have seen the video for schwalbe tires but they are expensive. Tire liners sound legit but what are they made of exactly? Also I heard of rubber tubes. Where can I buy those? PLEASE HELP!!!
wha he said u need to figure out why your are getting flat tires. If you are jumping curbs with under inflated tires of are you getting objects embedded in the tire. If you picking up nails and glass I would go with Mr Tuffy tire liners ( not the slime ones ). Kevlar tires will be better. there is no one reason for flats no single solution will work for all reasons you have to figure out why you are getting them or have a lot of money and luck there are airless tires but they are both horrible and expensive wle
There are tires that are puncture resistant, but there really is no puncture proof tire. There are quite a few systems for making a tire more puncture resistant, kevlar belts under the tread is only one of them. Schwalbe tires use a dense rubber belt under the tire to improve flat resistance, other companies use other materials. One thing to consider: punctures are not the only cause of flats. Insufficient air pressure is a very common cause of pinch flats. I see people riding all the time with tires that are obviously under inflated. Another cause is a defective rim tape. Before you do anything, try to figure out what is causing your flat tires in the first place. You can do this by examining where the puncture occurs. If it isn't on the outside of the tube under the tread with a corresponding hole in the tire itself, your flats won't stop if you buy a different tire. Tire liners won't prevent pinch flats or flats caused bu the rim or the rim tape
