NicNacDH Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 Does any one know, when it will be on the shelves?It was introduced @ the Interbike in 2014 ..... should be out soon? The Schwalbe Website does not have it for sale, and i can not find any other Site.http://www.schwalbetires.com/tech_info/procore_presentation_video Picture borrowed by:http://www.bikerumor.com/2014/08/26/eb14-schwalbe-pumps-up-procore-dual-chamber-system-on-all-rims-jumbo-jim-4-8-fatbike-tire-actual-weights-more/
NicNacDH Posted February 13, 2015 Author Posted February 13, 2015 You should expect "cool packaging" like this, @ around $ 230
Jan_K Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 Checking the internet weekly myself.Really excited about being able to run lower pressures on a hardtail, without the rim getting haelskade.
Skylark Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 You should expect "cool packaging" like this, @ around $ 230 Is that for 2 wheels but excl the tyres?
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 Is that for 2 wheels but excl the tyres?I think so yes
Skylark Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 For fives sakes, wonder how long they are designed to last for? Life of the tyre, till a vicious puncture?
NicNacDH Posted March 2, 2015 Author Posted March 2, 2015 For fives sakes, wonder how long they are designed to last for? Life of the tyre, till a vicious puncture? As stated in the article: " ..... The other consideration in the price is that you only have to buy the system once. Since it is not a wear item, under normal riding it should last through multiple pairs of external tires. It is possible to damage the inner tire and tube but it is very difficult. To help in that situation Schwalbe will eventually sell single replacement parts."That would help, for a vicious puncture. http://www.bikerumor.com/2014/08/26/eb14-schwalbe-pumps-up-procore-dual-chamber-system-on-all-rims-jumbo-jim-4-8-fatbike-tire-actual-weights-more/
Capricorn Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 sky: sounds like you looking for perfection. Wrong planet, wrong planet. More practically, a vicious puncture is pretty much the par for the course for any tyre to fail, so again, watchu you looking for from the procore system?
Skylark Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Cap not sure what you carrying on about but it is quite a pricey system so hopefully it has decent durability/longevity, but if you can buy spares they are selling the system with the right mindset unlike many mtb products where one small piece breaks and the whole part gets binned.

I'll still get it of course
Skylark Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Hahaha, ya I said decent durability how does that become ultimate durability?These aren't tyres so the significantly more expensive but often severely reduced durability due to softer compounds ratio doesn't quite apply here but carry on with your tangent, you having a jol.
