quotes @mackeroo I understand what you are saying, but will have to disagree. Both my lads are around the 100kg mark and hammer down a DH track, corners, berms jumps and drops anything and never rolled a tyre.... We have tried it and found it to be more than successful and will continue to run them that way. I can only think that anyone having trouble may not be seating the tyre initially with a high enough pressure before putting in the latex, wrong tyre pressure or wrong mix of latex/water. But hey, each to their own what works for some may not for others :)

quotes Great shot! I'm thinking it wouldn't be an easy photo to take but it looks awesome. Nice follow up from last years Christmas POD. What will you come up with for next Christmas I wonder ;)

quotes @Shodan54 Read and make an effort to 'comprehend' what has been written rather than just flame it. Take note of what I wrote. * DH race wheels. (not out on a trail in the middle of nowhere) * No pinch flats or burps in 2 years + (who carries a tube and changes it on the side of the track mid run at a DH race anyway) Fair to say that there is NO issue here at all. It's a race meet so I take spares. If they cut a tyre which has happened before I put in a spare wheel. If they are having that bad a weekend with cutting tyres I put on a new tyre with a tube. Oh, and as for the name, who cares what it is. You do not know the story behind it anyway.

quotes I'm with you. Run "Ghetto Tubless" on my kids DH race wheels on Syncros DPS32 rims and never had a pinch flat or burp in 2 years or so. Put tubes in their thrash wheels and get pinch flats even with good pressures :( Only just saying today that I'm going to run even those ghetto :) It's a cheap simple alternative that works, rather than converting to proper tubeless rims and tyres.

quotes At first glance I thought this pic looked a bit 'busy' with the plastic bags and the house etc in the background. But after taking it in, I actually like those things being there. It captures the country essence of Australia. Mates out having fun in the paddocks. I'm no photographer by a long shot, but I like the flash work and have had to use flashes on similar days and even sunny days to freeze the rider and overcome shadow. I've had similar effects from flashes and thought WTF when I've viewed them on the computer, and do not believe that this is Photoshopped. Great shot Patto, I think you've captured him at the ultimate time.
