I just got back from a ride. Midway through the ride I was noticing a slight thump. So i got off and inspected my front wheel/tire. I thought my eyes were screwy but in fact the tire is crooked on the rim. THere is also a tiny cut in it in this area.
I am pretty sure the rims are ok because i just bought the wheels last week and this was the second ride on them. I assume new tires are in order but what happened here? These are continental ultra 2000 tires. I am through with Conti tires at this point.
