Survey: Should the puncture protected Dutch Perfect tyre be on sale in a size to fit the Brompton?
April 12, 2003
Since some years tyre manufacturer Dutch Perfect from the Netherlands produces a patented tyre with special puncture protection. They claim it to withstand drawing pins, glass shards and other sharp objects without increasing rolling resistance - even a two year warranty is given. This could be an ideal tyre for utility cycling.
The manufacturer is willing to produce this tyre in the Brompton size 37-349 (16 x 1 3/8"), but this is economically feasible only above a production volume of 20,000.
June 23, 2003
Within about ten weeks 250 people voted for the Dutch Perfect. That means no serious interest.
The survey is finished now.
