  16. @SRLevine @ascentale #BikeNite A6: Yes, the #METL #Nitinol SMART tire (kickstarter.com/projects/smart) is the second thing which inspired me to that question.

    I would have backed the project on #Kickstarter, but none of their so far offered tire sizes fits any of my bicycles as they only offer 28" and 8.5". Most of my bikes have 20" (Bromptons) or 20" and 26" tires (IIRC all my recumbents have that combo).

    So my plan is to wait until they also offer less common tire sizes.

  26. An interesting Veritasium video about NASA working on making tires using the shape memory effect of Nickel titanium (Nitinol).

    Beside Mars rovers, they might be used to create non-pneumatic tires for bicycles, cars and planes.
