I couldn't find a used Koga Miytata world traveller. They've all be bought up by the retired german couples, but I did pick up a new one.

Care to throw up some pics of your vintage model again?

In a certain isolated village, the barber shaves every man who doesn't shave himself. Does the barber have a beard?

Seriously?
Another one who hasn't seen the tube, touched the tire, looked at a single piece of the evidence who's telling the person who did inspect all those elements that he didn't see what he saw?
And all of you just ignore simplest explanations like a tube just having a weak point that was worn out and exploited by being overpressured?
Because a $6 rubber inner tube that's too small and god only knows how old (seriously I have no idea...don't even know where I got it) is infallible, right? It MUST be something else?
Rubber never dries out and loses it's elasticity over time, causing weak points to be weaker. That never happens.....
