Bumps are not "normal" on tubulars if they've been properly fitted, and you should be able to reattach them better than this. Best advice I was ever given involves the use of an old broom handle - or big bit of dowel. Run the wheel, with tyre freshly attached and partially inflated, up and down the broom handle until everything is firmly seated and even. Then pump the buggers up as hard as you can and cross your fingers.
