I had a slow puncture on way in, just taken the tyre off the rim to fit a new tube and the tyre now seems like it is too big for the rim. can't get the bead to stay seated the whole way around, as I do one side the other just pops out.
anyone know how to fix?
checked bead and seems ok.
it's a 35c so there's a lot of side wall which i think is allowing it to elongate as I cant get the tube up to a high enough psi to get it take it's proper shape before it deforms and pops off again.
