I have 2x Schwalbe Racing Ralph 29x2.4 new in box and one slightly used. I bout these thinking that I was going to make a frankentire out of them, I tested one out for a few rides but liked another tire better. Decided not to use these and need to sell.
I would like to get $50 each for the new ones and $40 for the used one.
Buyer pays shipping.
MSRP: $75.85
EDIT: Might consider trade for some good street tires, 26 or 29
bump.
Always looking to experiment with tires. If you have something to trade let me know.
Used RR sold
Both new ones still available.
Hey I want to try to make a pneumatic 52” unicycle, the tube will be vinyl and use a tubeless valve, the tire is the hard part. I plan to cut two 26” tires in half and I’ve been trying to find a way to stick the together, could you help me out?
Styrofoam and acetone. There are videos on YouTube
Im sorry I don’t quite understand, could you elaborate please?
Here is a video on how to make the glue:
Cut your tubes and rough up the surfaces then apply glue to both surfaces then join them by overlapping.
I have watched several videos where they demonstrate but of course I’m having trouble finding it now. You may have to spend a little time searching the find it. If I find it I will send you the link.
Thanks that helps a lot
I never tried it but it looks like it works.
I’ll try it but I need to get everything else too
I was thinking you were joining the inner tube. To do the tire you will more than likely need to make a butt joint and do a reinforcement patch inside overlapping both sides generously. You may want to look at some rubber seam welding videos we’re you actually weld the two sections together with heat. I would still do a reinforcement patch on the inside.
Ok thanks
Goodluck
You can look up Frankentire here on the forum, people have done several with varying degrees of success. From what I remember they glue and sew the ends together with some overlap.
