For sure! But like another comment says, bikes just used paraffin wax for chain lube for a long time. Although not very easy to make at home, we have a fuck load of candles in this world already.
I think bike tires would be a relatively easy to solve problem tbh. Really just need flexibility.
What is the solution? It seems like inflatable tubes would be difficult or impossible to make without access to equipment or materials. Supposedly they do sell foam inserts that can be used instead of inflated tubes, but I got the impression from the reviews that they are basically unusable, and those might also be unavailable. I guess wheels before tires used to be wooden, but biking on wooden wheels sounds like it wouldn’t work very well.
Wood tires are actually better than people think, and bikes did use them. You can texture the wood or coat it to give it more grip, even put spikes in it.
Otherwise something flexible, doesn’t need to be air filled really.
Or we can make tubes from the intestines of our enemies. Like air filled sausage for your bike.
