Pinching GD tubes. this has got to be the 4th time between 2 bikes. first one was kind of stupid of me pinching it while mounting a tire...2 were low air pressure and then the last was a complete mystery. was riding down a dark bike trail at night and prolly ran some **** over but didnt find anything in the tire. nice little slit the size of my weiner in the tube. gay gay gay. time to stock up on tubes. im becomming a pro at tire swaps now though. oh yea and i taped the living **** out of the rim so instead of that rubber band ive got half a roll of electrical tape on it.

*end of rant*

 

lol. you arent the only one whos pinch tires. i have had my fair share of pinched tubes from mounting new tires. its sucks *** i know

 

sucks so bad, we were ridding good =0/

 

i pinch them all the time i always have to buy more then one at a time

 

must have been pretty small huh? naw man jus fugin with but ya dude i hate pinching tubes happens all the damn time for me dont kno why

 

yeh...all my buddies call me pequeno pp

 

even better now. just popped the new one trying to get it on. **** fiddies im taking the rc out

 

Put more air in your tires guys.

And you wont pop tubes anymore.


...Well at least you wont riding..

 

he just popped it putting it on.

 

I just pinched one yesturday taking a dirt tire off to put my street tire back on. Time for some tubless billet wheels.

 

Wrap the inside of your rims with 2 layers of duct tape

 

yeah, I think he said that.

 

I would just do a triple-check of the rim/tire/tube before airing the tire up after a swap. If something don't feel right, don't air it up, fix the problem, because you can't go back. I have never had a pinch flat yet. Also filling the tube with a squirt or two of air helps to get it centered in the tire. Just run your fingers along the inside edge of the tire to make sure the tube is where it should be. Bottom line is just be careful and take your time. If you **** it up, that's just more time you will spend putting your spare tube in, assuming you don't pinch that one too.
