Tire design as trolling: the Dugast TLR 33

Personally my jaw is on the floor: https://www.bikeradar.com/reviews/co...ss-tyre-review

“Each tyre is handmade. Traditionally, this has been done at Dugast’s small factory in the Netherlands. Following Vittoria’s acquisition of the brand, however, production has moved to Thailand.“

Sad-face emoji.

They couldn’t work unicorn snot or the phases of the moon into their setup requirements? Are they even trying anymore?

Yeah, the mounting directions seem pretty excessive.

My big takeaway from that article though is that I just learned Challenge tires has a tire range named for Hitler.
Challenge HTLR?!

The biggest troll- that the UK actually races amateur cyclocross all the way into February, like a civilized nation.

Tubeless setup is usually a bit of a faff.

Dugast's procedure seems like wearing a hair shirt or self-flagellating by comparison.

More than 15psi and the air will cause the casing and thread to separate from each other? ***? That's bonkers. I guess if you're an elite/pro, and have money/time/mechanic then have fun, but for normal people? A bit of a farce.

Happy April 1st. Darn Tough had a good email today for toeless socks.
