I was having a read through a 4X4 mag just to get and idea of the weapons they'll be using against us next when I saw an interesting article on bead lockers. These were pneumatic beadlockers not the mechanical ones, they sit inside your tyre like a mini tube and hold your tyre on the rim securing both the inner and outer beads. The guy in the mag took the valves out of his baja claws and was running around with zero tyre pressure climbing up everything. There's more infor on the site http://www.secondair.com.au/default.cfm but also they will act as an low profile inner tube for emergencys. According to the mag they are illeagal for road use (even though the site says they aren't) but they are practically invisible and the only giveaway is the second valve which no one will notice just walkin past or looking from a short distance. So has anyone tried them? The price would be prohibitive but it would be awesome to have a set even just for the rears, then you could take your tyres as low as you want with no worries! Better start saving....
