Very boring thread

[jklett]

Really happy with the paint match and fit thanks to @jklett for not letting me take my ideas to full term

The stuff was too new and shiny looking for me to allow those kind of shenanigans.

How big's the hole? Throw a stitch or two on it before patching if it's that big. I just put a regular patch inside where I got a pinch flat and it holds fine but the hole isn't that big.

Fuckers won't seat

 

[Mr.Moto]

looks like you have a compressor. Should be easy peasy.

If you have ratchet straps, put them around the tires, tighten down a bit and hit it with air.

Take the core out son. And spray soapy water around the bead. It gives a nice initial quick-seal and helps it slide into place. You should have zero trouble with a compressor.

If you still have trouble, throw in a tube and seat the tire. Remove ONLY ONE side of the bead when you pull out the tube, and try again. At least one bead will have been seated.

p.s. Holy shit that bike is long and slack. Is this your Mountain Creek downhill hardtail?

Its because the tire has a gash

I assumed the cores are out, but that's a good call if you didn't remove them.

It's only for lewmo in all seriousness this is for everything

I have enough air to overcome the gash both tires don't have gashes so I'm not sure which one has it but neither will seat. I'll take a crack in the am and ride old reliable at sunrise

@Paul H I hammered in the starnut square

 

[w_b]

Did you hammer the headtube slacker too?

Correct , because the frame has a 73mm bb housing and it doesn’t need a ISCG-05 plate.

@Magic, do you believe it would premature disussing the alignment of the vale with the tire logo?
