Re: Tubeless Coker tyre idea

I put a Coker tube on my kitchen food scale and it is 19 oz which comes
to 538 grams.  It's not a very accurate scale.  I'd give it an accuracy
of about +- 2 oz or +- 56 grams.  But even with that cheap scale it is
obvious that the Coker tube is a hefty tube weighing in at more than 1
pound.

The Coker tube weighs about the same as my heavy duty 24x3 Intense DH
tube that I use on my muni.  The Intense tube weighs in at 19 oz on that
same scale.  The Intense tube is the heaviest and thickest of the 3" DH
tubes.

Good luck on your 1/2 century Coker ride tomorrow.  
That's a 50 mile ride for you metric folks. :)
