stewie911 Posted May 27, 2010 Share So, I'm making ready for tonights night ride. I spin my rear wheel to see if the rotor rubs and wham: My tyre is stuck against the frame. It's worst than the picture indicates.It's a kenda tyre UST with Stans sealant. Has been running tubeless for about 3 months now. I deflated the tyre and pumped it up again. Twist doesn't go away.

stewie911 Posted May 27, 2010 Share tire looks pretty worn? old age/factory defect.. Tyre still has plenty of life left. Will open it up when I have time, to see what goes on on the inside. Luckily I have a mountain king to put on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johannrissik Posted May 27, 2010 Share 1. Tokoloshe? 2. Jurius Marema? 3. Dare I mention the word....delamination.(Unless the unseen rim has been attacked by 1 or 2 above with a bobbejaan spanner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammajoor Posted May 27, 2010 Share Heard that the Amonia in the Stans,makes the tyre delaminate and pull apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewie911 Posted May 27, 2010 Share Also heard that, but I thought stans was the one without amonia, which is obviously wrong, cause I checked 1 min ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weight Weenie Posted May 27, 2010 Share Maybe a puncture from sunday, tyre deflated with not much stans left and the residue made it stick to the rim, drying with the air that came in with the hole ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutt Posted May 27, 2010 Share someone posted on the hub a while back he hung it on the back of his car and the heat from the exhaust damaged the tyre. Possibility? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johannrissik Posted May 27, 2010 Share OK, last guess........Adobe Photoshop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewie911 Posted May 27, 2010 Share Don't know - Tyre seemed to have same pressure as sunday. How do I fix it. I did unflate it and it seemed fine, but when I inflated again, it got back to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
