had a front tyre blow out on me last week like a gunshot. it's quite frightening in traffic (not fun when you have a bus right up your jacksie and a metal fence blocking your path off the road).
no catastrophic loss of control, so it was ok. i was only doing about 15km/h (dodging around a taxi and aforementioned bus).
