A few years ago we went through a couple of blowouts exactly as ct-vt-trekker described above. Those tubes were Forte's from Perormance Bike. We lost then in short order over a couple of months and they were from a handful of tubes I bought all at the same time. Never had that problem before nor since. It sure had us spooked for quite a while. Have used other brands but are back with the Forte's again on multiple bikes and so far so good.
