How do you judge 'gross mismatch' other than with hindsight? Rattles around like a hula hoop on a skinny kid. If it is within the range of ordinary tightness (meaning that some effort has to be exerted with your thumbs to get the tire on the rim), then there must be something more subtle causing the blow off. I am curious to find out what that is. -- Jay Beattie. |

clincher roll-off revisited
From: Spacey Spade
I'm going to air up my tire to max, as I think this makes the tire stiffer to side loads. If you heat it up with a lot of braking, and it's already at "max", it will then have "more than max", possible to blow a clincher off the rim. See FAQ, I've never had the problem (since I use @110lbs as a max) but there are reports otherwise. --Tom Paterson |
