Bib-mouse
Does anyone has experience riding with a bib-mouse instead of a regular inner-tube? I'd like to know of it holds for 30.000 km or so.

If by bip-mousse you mean the Michelin type mousse used by enduro racers in events such as the dakar, then forget it. It only holds up for a short period of time. They change the mouse almost daily. Also its mounting process is somewhat difficult and sensitive to dust. That’s why in these races, the big boys like KTM carry a load of ready mounted tires/wheels with mouse and just change those. They are also expensive, just as expensive as the Michelin desert if not more. They also have a very short shelf life, something in the ballpark of a few month.
Hope this helps. ------------------ A.B. OasisPhoto.com – Images from the Magical Sahara. ShortWheelbase.com – Jeep preparations.

Thanks, I thought I'd give it a shot because I just hate punctures.
