Thanks guys all ok thanks just very very frustrated. Only positive is it’s an excuse to go bike shopping. I I]uploaded a pic but for some reason it didn’t work. I’ll try again.

Stolen: Specialized Turbo Levo 2018 When: 21 December 2019 Where: Randburg, Gauteng House robbery Get further details about the incident in the Stolen Bikes section

Thanks guys. Very helpful.

That's very helpful thanks. I googled snakebite punctures I'm pretty sure that's exactly what's happened as I went up the kerb. I probably already had the bulge and didn't notice it. Because it's not seated proeperly that's why it came off. Luckily at low speed!!

Thanks, that makes me feel a lot better! Quite disheartening starting out and the bike won't play ball. Will probably use the opportunity to go tubeless.

It won't pop off or something again?

Here's a pic of the problem.

Hi All I'm a very newbie biker and am incredibly frustrated. Had my bike for a week. On Friday I rode up a kerb a bit skew. The rear tyre caught and I got a puncture. Sorted it out yesterday because I was going for a ride in the cradle this morning. Front tyre was a bit low so decided to pump it. While I was pumping the valve came out and the tyre completely deflated. No riding for me. So I went out this afternoon instead. As I turned a corner the rear tyre came off completely. I put it back and pumped up. But it looks like I scraped the rim on Friday and the tyre isn't seating nicely where the scrape is. Do I need to buy a new rim?
