Review: Amerityre flat-free (tubeless) tire technology

I have one request, if you watch this video and decide to give it a low rating, please leave some kind of short explanation in the comments as to why you decided it deserved a low rating. Thanks!

In this video I review a truly impressive product made by American company Amerityre, which specializes in advanced polyurethane elastomer technology and using it to make the best tires in the world. But before I say more..

Consumer Advantages:
Runs cooler for longer life
Lower rolling resistance gives improved fuel economy
Single material pour reduces possibility of separation
Potential lower price due to reduced manufacturing cost

Manufacturing Advantages:
Lower capital investment
Less floor space required
Lower energy cost
Lower labor cost
Less scrap and waste

Technology Summary:
High abrasion resistance = longer life
Lower rolling resistance = improved fuel economy
No oils or plasticizers = environmentally friendly
Better elastic properties = reduced operating temperatures
True closed cell technology = no water absorption
High density material = excellent load carrying capability
UV and ozone resistant = will not break down

Thousands of people are killed or critically injured every year in the US because of rubber tire blowouts. Millions more are inconvenienced by flat tires. Think of all that time and energy wasted because of this clearly dysfunctional technology. Entire industries exist simply to service and repair punctured tires. Meanwhile all those ruined tires pile up in landfills, waterways, burn piles and wherever else people choose to dump them. But none of that has to be. The technology exists today to create superior tires.

I know because I've been using them for almost three years now. Check out your options, don't settle for inferior technology when you have better alternatives that not only look and perform better, but could save your life. Vote with your money, it's the only language that big corporations like Michelin understand.

and basically you say basically way too much, basically.

@markthurst100 Glad someone finally noticed, it's not easy working the word 'basically' into every sentence.

It looks like that site doesn't actually sell the tires directly, only to distributors. Where did you buy your tires?

[neotoy]

@blasko229 At the time you could buy them directly through their website, although I'm pretty sure you had to call them and order over the phone.

thanks for uploading this dude. i have just bought some "greentyres" from the 1990s era on ebay. They are the UK equivalent and are still in production...Im wondering what your ride is like as its supposed to be inferior to pneumatics (obviously as its hard)..whats the ride like?

[neotoy]

@FILMMAKERCHAP I didn't really notice a difference between the solids and my former pneumatic tires, but I think it may depend a lot on the terrain. Since I use my bike mostly for urban environments there's not a lot to notice.

@FILMMAKERCHAP Amerityre and Nutech make some time-trialing versions in 700c, about $50-100 USD each, depending on model, also there are 27x1-- sizes available around $35

[stopglobalswarming]

@DJfresh102 Yes, the 20' sizes are even less than the larger sizes. Google Amerityre, or see noflattires net .

[stopglobalswarming]

@blasko229 VVVVVV noflattires () net has the Amerityres

[raindog951]

I had the UK version in the 90's. It was Ok in the Summer, but in the Winter they became ROCK hard in icy conditions. I hope the new solid tyres have improved this.
