It is in 1891 qu ' Edouard Michelin develops and makes patent the first dismountable tire with tire tube for bicycle. The repair of a tire is from now on possible in record time (it was necessary before for the cloth-lined tire stuck on the rim, not less than three work hours and ten hours of drying). The legend says that it is at the time of the passage of an English cyclist in Clermont-Ferrand and who had burst that Edouard Michelin had the idea of the tire tube.
