RE: Flat Tyre question post SHTF
Thanks Devonian
Thanks Tarrel.
The plug type repair kits seem good value.
Thanks for the pointer for inner tubes. Excellent.
One way we used to use to break the seal between tyre rim is to use vehicle weight. Drive over the tyre and rim, or better still jack up a road wheel, put the flat under it, and then let the jack down.
Once the bead is broken, the tyre can be pried of the rim with a tire iron. This will be hard work on a modern tubeless tyre as the tolerances are tight.
I'm with Tarrel, Pnumatic tyres will be a big advantage on all manner of carts and trolleys, long after motorised transport has stopped running.
