February 24, 200620 yr if its leaking between the tyre and rim, then you probably got a damaged bead on that tyre, the manufactures would replace your tyre if its faulty im sure??
February 27, 200620 yr put wasing up liquid inbetween the rim and the tyre and they pump it up to 20-40psi
February 28, 200620 yr ".......after doing this the tyre still goes down between the rim and tyre. any help would be appreciated as i am now stuck for ideas" Let the tire down and break the bead, dry both the rim and the tire, get your silicone gun out and put a bead round the rim on the flat, do not worry too much about how it looks, turn over do the same on the other, inflate (the silicone is a good lubricant) up to about 30psi to seat it, then let it down to about 20 ish, now wipe off the excess and leave it for a couple of hours and hey presto. Comes off very easily when changing tires, i have had success with chewed up second hand tires with torn beads... Moleman
March 2, 200620 yr fix it right, (like the silicone idea), don't even think about a tube unless its just to finish out the day. I'm trying to convert an older bike from tube to tubeless because I hate bead locks and tire repairs so much. The newer ones, a couple plugs in and we are going again. Also, the flex is reduced quiute a bit with tube in place. k
