DeanEasy (named for its inventor, Alberto Deanesi, pronounced “day-on-ay’-zee”) has a Tufo tubular tire without tread on it that is inflated to high pressure (up to 8 bar, or 116psi) through a Presta valve. Surrounding the Presta valve is an air collar connected to an aluminum Schrader valve coming off at an angle; it allows inflation of the (sealant-filled) tubeless tire that surrounds the tubular. The tubular, like the high-pressure inner chamber of Schwalbe’s ProCore and of the Michelin DH system, presses the tubeless tire’s beads outward against the rim walls and prevents burping when cornering hard, even at pressures in the outer tire as low as 1 bar (14.5psi). It also prevents pinch flats and rim damage when banging rocks at such low pressure.

" As I was riding with RKP contributor J.P. Partland, my bike got a rear flat. J.P. took off and grabbed a fresh wheel at the Fuji booth and brought it back down to me. After I switched wheels I got back on the bike to ride back to the Fuji tent."

It was kind of a strange moment.  We were out riding the Fuji's, Patrick flatted and naturally, the bikes weren't equipped with a pump, co2, or a tube.  I rode to Fuji: they didn't have a pump or inflator to give me, so I took a wheel and rode back.  

After we had ridden a mile or two, Patrick asks to stop.  He checks the tires.  Asks me to gauge which tire had more air in it.  Seemed like the front.  Kind of amazed he could tell.  But also kind of amazed that they were pumping up 25mm Vittoria Corsa's to 105-115psi.  Yes, the wide, supple tire will ride better and lead many to have amore favorable impression of the bike, but it also won't be quite as comfy a ride.  Interesting tradeoff (or they never bothered to think about it)

I will punch you in the throat if you post another video glorifying the douche that doped
Starring another dude that doped in an effort to fully emulate the first dude that doped. My god, I'm punching myself in the throat just for thinking of this

You'd have to come to Brooklyn to do that. And also, where is the glory in being a villain?

If I take EPO to watch this film, is it like Inception, doping to watch a movie containing a doper, about a real life event of a doper, competing against less well paid dopers?
I was in Brooklyn today. I would drive back for a good lance motivated
neck punch. Totally!

I'll save you fifteen bucks, he jabs lots of needles in his ass, loses a
nut, and wins a bunch of bike races.

Oops. #spoileralert
Dan, I'm not sure how one dopes to watch a movie. Ritalin? Caffeine? Pre game by watching "the view" for nine days straight? Confused.
