Why did we try this tire?
When the air pressure of tire becomes higher,the rolling resistance becomes lower.
But tire for mileage car will burst, when air pressure is higher than 9kg/cm^2.
So Team Fancy Carol uses the tire with the pressure under 7kgf/cm^2 in SUZUKA
Circuit.
Normal bicycle tire is using thick rubber,
and we confirmed that the tire doesn't burst until it reaches
to more high pressure in endurance test.
We thought that the normal bicycle tire with very high pressure may achieve
lower rolling resistance than tire for mileage car.
簡易惰行試験結果 Test result of simple test.
3輪の内1輪のみを変更して比較した。
We changed one tire of the three wheels.
The rolling resistances are estimated to be close by this test.
The diameter of M Corp.'s tire for mileage car is 20 inchs.
But different sizes of tires are available for normal bicycles.
If you think that the air flow resistance is more important than rolling
resistance
and you want to use the smaller size of tire, this tire may be good.
