THE LEATHER TIRE.
A Cycling Authority Discusses Its Alleged
Advantages and Disadvantages.

A Cycling Authority Discusses It's Alleged
Advantage and Disadvantages.
Leather tires, it is thought, can be
made at less than one-quarter the cost
Of rubber tires A single tube leather
tire, we think, has never been contem-
plated. II would obviously be impossi-
BILE to make one that would hold air ef-
fectually AS an outer covering for an
inner tube of rubber the possibilities Of
leather are worth considering,
1t is quite impossible from any present
knowledge of the subject to have any
adequate opinion of the qualities Ct
leather for tiremaking purposes There
is reason in the supposition that an ont.
err shoe Of leather would be fairly durn-
BILE provided care were taken to prevent
it becoming hard and intractable under
that influence of moisture to which cv-
cry bicycle tire is subjected. livery ono
is familiar with the effect CT water up
on shoe leather. The sliCc becomes horiy
and liable to crack unlC y some pains
are taken to renew its pliability ty oil
ing or otherwise
The point Of resiliency in Tres has
been widely discussed. In the case OF
the rubber pneumatic it would seem
that the elastic qualities Of the material
have something to do with resiliency
without regard to the lively qualities OF
confined air. Either the leather tire
would be dead" tire or else the pop
ular idea that more or less life" CEN
tiers in the rubber itself is entirely err
roneous. SO far as we can judge, leath-
er tire would lack resiliency to degree
which would render it entirely inferior
to the rubber tire.
There is no question that tire with
a leather outer covering would be
perfectly ridable and possess more OF
less Of what we now consider the pneu-
matte quality, but elasticity at the point
Of contact, which, we believe, accounts
in no small degree for the fine riding
qualities Of the rubber tire would ap.
parsntly be lacking, and. as previously
said, bad effects Of wetting would have
to be looked after sharply to insure du'
rability.
However, we do not wish to wholly
condemn the leather tire without hear
ing. II has been announced that sucf
tires will soon be manufactured in con
siderable quantities, and we await will
interest their introduction to practica
use. American Cyclist.
