This is a problem with many many many rims.
It happens quite alot on cheap rims, and occasionally on a more expensive rim, and on really cheap rims its almost guaranteed to happen.
Its not the end of the world, and can't be felt when riding in truth. Unless you are running 150+ PSI on boards of course.
As for it not happening on the open sport, I'm sorry to say that they aren't very good at all, so yes it happens, quite alot. But don't worry. You are more likely to taco the rim then notice the flatspot. Promise. :)
