Dropped in on the bird board this afternoon for a second -- noticed Otto adverts for Mahle gasburners:

Is this real or is it memorex? kim. |

The gasburners were not too popular in their day due to cracking. I do not believe that they were available in a tubeless version either. So, the light weight of the rim was offset by the need to use tubes in them. Are tubes still available? All of my tubes have been packed in boxes for twenty years at least.
