| ANTISNAKE BITE SYSTEM (ABS) |
 |
Reinforcement of the tube in the area of the rim arm markedly lowers the possibility of the puncture „snake bike“. When running against a hindrance and during deformation of the tyre profi le the tube walls strike against each other. The reinforced part of the tube is softer with higher flexibility and camber radius. This highers the tube wall interface, lowers the specifi c pressure and the puncture strength, which is dangerous for the inferior part of the tube profi le, is subsequently lowered. This effect can be reached by null weight increase. This tube construction fi nds its use in extreme terrain conditions DH, FR, 4X and XC. |
