Or typical mounting error..
did you insure none of the inner-tube was beneath the tire bead , but, instead between them , only..
They are more or less difficult to mount, I even have to use the (plastic) tire lever to fit them. I am pretty sure they were (and are) well mounted because I inflate the inner tubes before fitting them into the tire and I rode more than 100 miles with them (including some similar "bumps") without a problem. Maybe I failed by putting more pressure than the rims supports, but I want to be sure that the folding tires do not tend to come off with "lateral forces".
