I agree MrJmazing, that is one great tune. Who is the artist?

Agree.. Never stretch a tire like that. You should only do this by mounting it on the rim (without cement of course) the day before, and inflate to maximum pressure.

You never want to stretch the tire like that.

Hey, what's the title of the musical track that plays throughout and where can I find it?

@Murry25 Likable 'rant' It made me laugh...

Ridiculuosly misleading infromation in this video. FFS.
1) Stretching the tyre by pulling on it, SPECIFICALLY recommended against for conti tyres
2) Tubular tape instead of glue, glue has been SCIENTIFICALLY tested to hold stronger than tape.
3) Leaving a section of rim 'untaped', is dumb. Your tyre WILL roll.

Only issue I have is finding a 700mm tubular tire that has the puncture resistance of the Continental GatorBacks. Good video and if you have the time, recommend some tires for my old Mavic wheel please ;0

Aber wo krieg ich die Schiene fürs Bein her?
Why in my day we used glue to get it to adhere to the rim. They were called them sew-ups and we used dental floss to sew them up after a repair. Ah, the a prize of a silk makes me shutter with delight. Dang whipper snappers! Bikes are made of carpet fiber now too...gimme steel. LOL Five stars!! UFCF #02937S
