Realized I had fitted my rear tyre the wrong way round so just deflated it flipped it round and re-inflated it and put it back on bike
Was doing some other work on the handle bars when there was an enormous gunshot sound preceded by a short sharp hiss. The tube had exploded.
I literally screamed out like a big girl.
Now wondering whether this is common, or maybe I pinched the tube somehow? It was a nutrak tube 700 x 35, I assume i can inflate these to 60psi plus? it doesn’t say so the box, but it does say high pressure. Maybe I just got a duff one?
was going to order some in the on-one sale as they are much cheapo, but not sure now, this one came from CRC.
