Hi Chris & Mark,

I had to look this one up:-
Hysteresis represent the history dependence of physical systems. If you push on something, it will yield: when you release, does it spring back completely?

Chris, it is interesting that your fitter mentioned this. I am a member of a "Tenere"/Enduro forum and there are alot of guys there who use the 'thicker' Michelin & Pirelli inner tubes and travel successfully into the Sahara regions. I suspect there is more to this, like the compound the tube is made from, etc..., rather than the thickness perhaps?

For Mark, local knowledge is important and the nearest Triumph dealer must use a tyre shop? They should be able to recommend and supply a quality inner tube.

Another avenue would be to contact one of the major company's technical departments and discuss the options and outlets? Their details should be on their websites.

Good luck.
Geoff
