Can't seem to get my wire bead supertacky highroller to sit in my stans flow rim. Does anyone have any tips as to how this might be made easier, I am using a Joeblow track pump which has been fine getting other tyres on the rims.
Thanks in advance
Same tires, same rims and guess what... same track pump too. No problem for me TBH.
Are the tires brand new?
My tires seem to pop into the rim at just over 40 PSI if that helps. May be a problem with the pump?
Good luck.
My Joeblow wasn't very good for tubeless- well made pump but very low volume, it shifted about half as much air per stroke as my (rather crappy) Airtower.
That's probably not totally helpful but it got my wirey minions and swampies on no bother.
did you remember to take out the valve core ?
Tyres have been used for a few months, non tubeless. Tyre goes onto rum fine with tube as to be expected, so I do have one bead in place. Might need to give that a go Ewan. I have tried it with the valve core in, worked fine with other tyres. But have also removed the core but to no avail. The second brad just doesn't want to budge from the centre of the rim.
Dual Ply HR with tubes and Flow Rims and JoeBlow no problem getting tyre inflated. My issue was getting them onto rims in the first place as they were so tight

Do you have some washing up liquid on there? I found putting ST High Rollers on ArchEX rims the bead didn't want to move much, but a bit of lubrication really helped. Used one of the tubeless bongs linked to above too.
Well I have tried the majority of what has been suggested with no luck. It just doesn't seem to want to get the second bead onto the rim.
Are they dual or singleply? WIth singles, you can get some success just pulling the tyre onto the bead a little (works better with an assistant this). DOesn't really work with dualplies though.
