I was preparing to leave my house this past Saturday morning.
Was all geared up and ready to go, about 30 minutes prior, I'd pumped the tires on the road rig to the usual 120psi, now was reaching for my socks and BOOM!!
My rear tube blew, right there parked in my living room…
My cat hurled himself through the air and up the stairs, I don’t think he even touched the ground…
poor lil’ guy….
I found no cause whatsoever for the blowout… save for a tiny hole near the valve. I changed it out and rode 40 miles. I suppose better to blow out in the house than on the ride.
A friend suggested it was simply the tubes time…
