Chap at my work keeps telling me about some sort of orange coloured plasticky inner tube that is alledgedly much more puncture proof, if a bit more expensive. He can't remember the name though. Anyone have an idea about what he means/if its actually worth it or just horrible to ride.?

A bit? They're way more expensive and I'm not sure their claims hold much water ~~air~~

I had a discussion on the gravel thread about them and aerothan and RevLoops. Their main benefit is smaller packsize, so useful for racing and minimal setups.

Prob not worth it for me then and that kind of price, now i've seen them. He didn't know how much they were exactly, just had heard of them. He has these sort of solid tyres fitted to his commuter so he's always taking pity/gloating over my punctures (that seem to come in groups)
