Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone could enlighten as to why this happens. The rear tire will go flat and when I mount the tire back on after replacing the tube, the tire wants to buldge out over the rim at the area near the valve. It's kind of like the tire has stretched to much or something. I'll push the bead back down and reinflate slowly, but it will pop out again. Had same problem with Continental 4000's and Armidallo's. When the tire is new and installed the first time, it seats perfectly without a hassle.
Thanks, and I'd appreciate your help so I can get back to pedalling down the bayou kicking dogs while listening to Alter Bridge. nightman
