Yup, I've had a number of "baddies" before; usually they're the cheapies, proving the old adage "you get's what you pays for!". Mine have mostly been a weakness where the valve is bonded into the tube. Some of them have given up soon after getting them up to pressure, a right P.I.T.A. when it happens to both of the spares you're carrying!!!
