That's actually good to know because I was considering getting the Ultralight version for my touring bike, so thanks for that info. What I did years ago when I used to use the regular MrTuffy was to coat the inside of the tire, the Mr Tuffy liner, and the tube with baby powder and never again had a flat caused by the liner rubbing the tube, so I will be doing that with the new liners.
