They’re shit. We got excited in the workshop and ordered a bunch. First two colleague fitted instantly popped. We joked about his skill.
Other colleague fit one. Next day down.

I fit one, it popped. All this at low pressure.
Pirelli’s offering is a bit sturdier but no better.

They need a perfect tyres/rims combo which is what I found, Brompton higher end model come standard with them and got swapped.

I did get excited by them, then I swap to tubeless.

Yeah I know. Still doesn’t stop them from being shit.

Let those tubes be nothing but a bad memory of stupid innovations. Better for everyone and the planet.
At least your can recycle standard tubes.
