you should contact Schwalbe Tires and explain your problem with the tire. They are super good with warranty and they certainly want to hear about any problems with their stuff... Its a good company they usually take care of you .... I think they will send you a questionaire about the tire ..( dont throw it away )


good to hear about the Joule Dahon wheel. Its not a Son Handbuilt wheel for sure ( 350 bucks) . But I think it is an excellent value ( under 100 ) . Even if it comes without that darn female plug :-)
