This is an odd question. I just replaced my rear tire, a Michelin Carbon with a Kevlar bead. And while performing a disection of it to see how it was made, I wondered if anyone has ever bothered to reuse any of the roughly 12 feet worth of Kevlar strands from the old tires. I know it's hardly valuable, but it isn't often that I have Dupont's wonder fiber laying around the house. Maybe grandma can knit me a bullet-proof sweater. Has anybody had any clever ideas for it?
