This being a kickstarter makes it a non-starter for me but it looks pretty promising: Hopefully they work great and become popular.

    I’ve never had a flat. It’s just a matter of being prepared for the one or two times in my entire life I get one.

    Tires like this significantly shift the cost/benefit analysis of biking in the first place, they’re just not practical for the vast majority of users.

      This specific type might be too expensive, but there’s been a lot of work in non-pneumatic tires for bicycles as well as for heavier vehicles for some time. Wouldn’t be surprised if they at some point would make their way to affordable commuter
