Smart inner tube exposed as unintelligent

Pirelli recently launched its SmarTUBE (sic) inner tube to great fanfare.
But an exclusive Bikefax investigation now reveals that the SmarTUBE isn’t actually intelligent.
“Pirelli claims to have created a new being. But the SmarTUBE is nothing more than a SmarTASS”, said a 26″ inner tube from the discount section in Halfords.
Despite bold claims, it turns out the SmarTUBE is in fact just an inner tube, albeit a very light one. It won’t order your food shopping, park your car or even steer you around puncture-inducing sharp edges.
Following seconds of tireless journalisming, proof that the SmugTUBE is not in fact SMART was found in Pirelli’s marketing material:
“…highly visible, thanks to its bright yellow colour, SmarTUBE is equipped…”
The report concludes that whoever thought a highly visible inner tube was a good idea should be sent back to SchOOL.
