Tyres won't seem to mount straight on rims.. I'm using tubeless compatible rims with tubeless tape, if that makes a difference, but have had the same problem with both a tubed and tubeless compatible (although with a tube) tyres.
Have tried deflating and reinflating but no joy, and trying to wiggle the tyre into place - tyre was seated properly before I got a flat so didn't think it would be rim tape but could that be a possible issue?
Anything else I can try? Am in the Alps so losing a day's riding if I can't get it sorted
