So... what's going on here? Sidewall bulge? Went to inflate my tyres yesterday after not using my bike for a week, and air is just hissing out the bead. Pushed the bead off and popped it on again, and it stopped leaking, but I'm afraid of it blowing up.
Went to swap on another tyre, but forgot about having to add a layer of rimtape to account for bead stretching so couldn't get that to seat either ...
