It would be interesting to see an at least semi-scientific comparison test
between these two foam insert options and procore. Testing these three options
to failure (both pinch flat and burp test) in a press with some sort of force
measurement would not be too hard but it would be expensive to get any kind of
statistically significant result (think lots of tires destroyed in the pinch
flat test). Otherwise all we are left with will be anecdotal evidence and
personal experience. I also wonder about the relative life expectancies of
these 3 options.
I would expect procore to out perform the other two in burp protection but
pinch flat protection would be an interesting comparison. FTD defender seems
like it has best potential to provide a smooth progression in tire feel
depending on how hard the compound is unlike procore where you can definitely
feel when you bottom the outer chamber out and are hitting the inner procore
casing (at least if you are running below normal tire pressures in the outer
chamber).
The thing that bothers me about Huck Norris is that the edge to edge width is
not consistent. I'm curious what their reasoning for this was.
Does anyone have accurate weights on procore to compare against these two
options?
