The fingers
10 TW
I am going to inflate my new inner tubes with nitrogen. The manager of a local tire dealer offered to let me use it for free.
Lots of sketchy, incomplete, and speculative information floating around about the stuff. I would like to not have to pump up as often (I'm getting seriously lazy).
I hear bicycle racers use it, and I hope tubes will last longer due to decreased oxidation and consistant pressure. The store manager assured me that it couldn't hurt (I heard a rumor that it would freeze and crack the rubber), so I guess I volunteer to be the guinea pig to test it out commuting. It is generally not considered practical or popular for widespread use currently.
Anyone here who tried it or knows of its effectiveness? The guy at the LBS thinks it's a hoax. :?
