I got a flat on the front about a week ago, I had not inflated the tires for a week or so at the time of the first flat and suspected that to be the reason. Yesterday I got another one after putting air in the tires before I rode. I was riding city streets in NYC.

Rims are Alex DA-13 700c, 32 hole, tires are Maxxis Detonator 700c x 25. Tanwall

Do I just have awful rims, bad tires? could I be putting too much air into the tire? Not enough? Bad luck?

I am trying to figure out do I need to buy something new, change the air pressure in the tire, or just be more careful?

Thanks
