I want to know what the max speed rating is for those bicycle tyres.

Craziness....

If I wiped out at 236kph, I think I would hope more for instant death then the pain involved in that wipeout and lengthy recovery!

haha, that must be some well constructed bike. Surely it must be running solid tyres on custom fab hubs, along the lines of motorbike tyres.

There's a whole range of factory built, custom made motorized bikes now, which have custom tyres and hubs for strength (as youd expect from something that cost as much as a new scooter), so they must surely be available from somewhere.

You'd probably have to weld them in place, most importantly.
