Went to leave a buddies last night and had a flat. Pumped up and could hear an audible leak. Was one of like the three nights a year I didn't ride with my bag which has a spare tube and flat kit. Wrapped the tire where it was leaking with some electrical tape, overinflated the tire by 15 psi and rode home fast. Went to fix it this morning. Installed a brand new latex tube I've had laying around, was leaking air around the valve after I installed and pumped it up. Grab another latex tube and install, also ends up leaking air around the valve. Say **** it, I'll just put my ruffy tuffy back on, that thing still has the tube stuck in it from when I changed it out for the conti grand prix 4000, and it never flatted. Get it installed and pumped up only to find out that the extra width going from 25mm to a 27mm tire rubs on the completely unused rear brake bridge. Get extra mad, grab conti tire again and a butyl tube from the garage and finally install it with no issues.
4 tubes, some sweat, lots of frustration, and 30 minutes later just so I could ride to the gym to work out on labor day by myself because my buddy that was meeting me there got kicked out trying to sneak in without a membership because he's cheap >.>
