Well, I could see it. Say if the temperature were to drop below 77 degrees[1].
I imagine it would hard to ride with the tires deflated, filled with just a bit
of liquid nitrogen. I suppose if you filled them with helium you would be good
down to about 4.2 degrees. I'm not sure how well the tire and tube would hold up
to those temperatures though...
