It shows the build quality of tube like this, in the fact that they have, neither ringed off, or lost any gas pressure Cool

Yep it's been fine for nearly 50 years, quite amazing really. Now it's in my hands it'll probably ring off or lose vacuum Laughing

4fts are generally ok its usually 5foot that have been the issue for me. Just clean the shit off it stick it in a sleeve so it doesnt rub against other tubes and itll be fine

I dunno, look at those kolorite 4' Thorns I had, all 3 failed - 2 ring-offs and one that lost vacuum Sad
