Rear tyre not seating on rim
#17
Good to hear you got it on!


As an aside to the seating it with fire thing (in case someone else wants to try it), make sure you have the compressor ready when you light em, i've had them slip back off the bead if you don't get the air into them before the air inside the tyre cools down and contracts (particularly PITA tyre that was).
Sometimes the wheel will jump 2 feet in the air when you do it, which is fun!  But i did hit myself in the hand once.  Not the face at least.
If it doesn't work the first time you have to wait a while before there is enough oxygen in the air inside the tyre for it to work again.


That's my experiences with it anyways Smile.
