Oh man I had no idea, I remember he was selling them on this board but never knew he had been selling them through RH as well. That would sadly explain why they're out of stock there.

I had reached out to Jan Heine, to see if there was any interest in me picking up where Scott left off, but never heard back.
There didn’t seem to be much interest here either, so I didn’t really pursue it any further.

I miss Scott. He was a good guy for sure.
But do tire savers actually work? I used them for years, long ago.

Use them on my two Peugeots, and I haven’t any flats for some time. (Now I’ll be jinxed). The 87 Dolomites required Sheldon’s nuts. Back in the day, in Oklahoma, they were called sticker flickers.
Someone said I should run the tire saver forward, but they won’t fit in the fork, as there is barely enough space for the Veloflex 25’s
