    This is the first I've heard about this product Brian. Looks good but I do have to wonder how much weight it will add to the tire and what kind of a mess you will end up with. After all, sooner or later you have to replace the tire! What is it going to be like? I'm betting it won't be pretty at all.

    Methinks it would be better to buy a thorn-proof tube (they are made in either presta or shrader valve) or a liner. I think the liner and tube end up around the same weight. They are heavier, of course than a regular tube but probably not as heavy as the stuff you fill the tube with. There used to be only one maker with thorn proof but now there are many. I think you can even buy some on Amazon but you might also try www.bentupcycles.com (that's Dana's shop).

    Not mine, but I've met this guy and ran the saw briefly.

    Husqvarna 562XP - $375 (Greentree)
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    http://www.husqvarna.com/us/products/chainsaws/562-xp/966570302/

    Currently selling one of my Husqvarna 562XP. This saw is very fast and offers so many features which is why I included the link. I only used to fell and clean up some very large trees. I have a 24" bar on it, but will go up to 30". I'll also include a small gas can and mixing oil as I still have other saws. It was well maintained and I mostly ran the premix cans from the dealer. The compression release when starting is awesome, makes for an easy pull. The vibration reduction system is also a great feature. I also have the rancher and a Stihl Farm Boss and you can really tell the difference. $375 o.b.o. (and please don't low ball me as I don't have to sell it). Cash only (no cashier check scams). First person here with cash gets it period. Questions: XXX-XXX-XXXX. Thanks, Bert. Or contact me through here. Text is fine, that is my cell. Located in Greentree, minutes off parkway. Great saw, I'm just moving and need to clear things out.

    Lots of chainsaws sale or trade (fairchance pa)

    Untitled.jpg
    2 don't have bars most have chains and bars. 1 electric saw, it does work as is. 1 chainsaw box. $20 obo each also willing to do a group deal make offer trade or cash. Unsure of the condition they have been sitting for awhile so probably need the carbs cleaned or other things.

    Today in Strange Craigslist Trends, we have three different Homelite 925 Supers available in the greater Pittsburgh area...

    Homelite chainsaw - $100

    [​IMG]

    Really hard to start it's a Beast like new chain needs new gas line

    [​IMG]

    HOMELITE SUPER XL-925 CHAIN SAW. 26" Bar. Original Owner. Heavy Duty. Powerful. Old school saw. EXCELLENT CONDITION. $150. Price is firm.

    this homelite is a good running saw just needs
    a rubber piece that snaps over the gas line but
    it does not stop the saw from running

    We have free sawdust, bark, wood shavings, scrap logs and other left over products.

    We want a hassle free way of getting rid of these items. Would like someone with ability to take all. We have an area 65x 120 covered in 4 to 6 inches of sawdust.

    Looks clean but compression is a bit low,certainly for the $2500 asking price

    I wouldn't put too much stock in that number as a plethora of things affect a compression reading. He could be using an old automotive gauge, only pull a couple/few times, hell he could have the comp release on. As long as it runs properly I would give the engine a pass. $2500 is a bit steep. Maybe if it was a like-new 090AV but this looks to be just a super-clean regular 090.
