DownhillingKing Posted December 4, 2009 Share I have done 2 rides since I purchased these tyres one up to the Mast and the other up to the Block House and they have already split on the side walls!! With the tube bulging out the side of the tyre. Has this ever happened to anyone else before as I heard they are really good tyres but from this I will never buy them again.

Flowta Posted December 4, 2009 Share Post a picture. Any idea how/where the tear occured? Depending on how the tear occured you might be able take it back to the shop you got it from and see if the agents will replace it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtbvip Posted December 4, 2009 Share I have been using Crossmarks for the last year. I ride 6 times a week - never had a sidewall cut. Pretty much rode them without any problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownhillingKing Posted December 4, 2009 Share are they the foldable one's are you running tubeless full sus bike or hardtail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wernervdmerwe Posted December 4, 2009 Share Had Crossmarks on my hardtail and dual-sus, necer had anything like that happen to me - maybe a manufacturing fault on that one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willehond Posted December 4, 2009 Share Hmmm, any chance you got some Stans/Slime/other sealant in those tyres? That sounds like another occurance of the dreaded sealant delamination... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassie Posted December 4, 2009 Share Not if a tube is protruding.... I think this is delamination causing the weakspot...take em back and kick up a fuss...two rides is unacceptable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willehond Posted December 4, 2009 Share Ah, the pic is a bit blurry and I'm tired. Thought it was a bubble un der the tyre wall. Yes, bad tyre. DEMAND a replacement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
