…and later on – the rear tire blew (for the same reason as the first) as my face inched close to the rear wheel with camera in hand to take what I hoped to be ultra cool pictures for this site. I was only about three feet away when the rear tire exploded. I watched as the tire bulged and then BANG! My ears rang for an hour louder than they normally do. Ouch!

Finally finished with my bike build up…. so I thought! I had just pumped my tires to just under 6 bar (85psi) and was checking my email quick so I could go out and ride and I heard a “pffft…. BANG!” At first I though someone threw an M80 next to my chair but after a walk though of the house I saw that my front tire was flat and the tire bead unseated meaning that it wasn’t properly seated in the first place, causing the blowout.
ARRGG! Someone really doesn’t want me to finish this thing! |
