What's the damn go with all these flats. new tyres, tyre liners, no glass. Cause for deeper inspection.

Too much pressure in the tube?

Thanks all for your concerns. I am of the opinion that the problem lies with the rim. I have changed tyres (GP 4000's to GP 4000's) I have a tyre liner, they are checked for glass etc regularly, the flats haven't been pinch flats. All flats have been "slow" flats with one pinhole. Tyre pressure has been consistently 95 -100psi. All flats have been the back wheel. Five flats in six weeks. All replacement tubes are brand new out of the box Continentals. Prior to that on the same wheelset with the same conditions no flats for more than 12 months!

I will change wheelsets for this weekend and take some time with the rear wheel. Such is the frequency of these flats that I spend an extraordinarily large amount of time looking down.

Dougie · Postby **Dougie** » 11 Sep 2013, 10:45

How many flats have you had this year?

half a dozen or so in the last six weeks. trouble free before that for almost 18 months. I have changed tyres, tubes, tyre liner, pressure, checked for glass etc. swapped to a different wheelset for the last seven days. all ok so far (jinxed now)

I am considering Kurnell next Monday (long weekend). I have ride leader duties Saturday and Sunday next weekend and I will post details of the ride on the forum if it gets off the ground.

I "Rode with" the ox yesterday morning. As per normal he flew past me on the flat. Somehow i was passing him on the hills. We did this for about 20 mins before we took it easy through Pyrmont. We chatted and found out he had a flu and was taking it easy on the hills As he has been on one Waterfall ride and intends to do more i guess i can claim the DH spotted!

And i was shattered for the rest of the day after that ride

I took a look at this thread in the weekend, and saw that "Strawburger" spotted me recently. I was thinking who is "Strawburger" so I did a bit of a search, and found the above conversation from late 2011 about me, lol. I remember that ride, it was hard work, not sure if I was taking it easy on the hills, but I did have a flu and I think I was struggling on the hills. It ended up being a full year later before I actually joined DHBC!

btw I spotted "Strawburger" out doing some secret training.
