latex eliminates pinched flat issue, you almost can't pinch latex.


I call BS on that. I experimented with 85 PSI when I switched to 25mm tires (latex) and after reading the Poertner/Anhalt thing on tire pressure and rough surfaces. I started pinch flatting a ton (on the terrible SoCal desert roads).

Maybe you call that the "wrong pressure." But I call it the "right pressure" and the "wrong technology" based on the data. That's what motivated my switch to tubeless, and boy am I glad I did. The peace of mind is great. Time spent at the side of the road has decreased by ~90%. I don't like spending time at the side of the road, training or racing.
