Troubleshooting for Tube Tires

Tube tires are often tricky, and do fail to seal more often than tubeless - maximize your chance to save the tire by following these instructions.

Safety First!
Always wear personal protective gear, especially eye protection. Do not eat, drink, or wear as clothing. 

Troubleshooting for Tube Tires

• Remove debris from puncture
• Point puncture downward
• Pressure tire up to maximum recommended PSI of tire (Do NOT exceed safe pressure rating - see tire manufacturer’s  specifications)
• Roll tire around and keep pressure at maximum recommended PSI of tire  (Do NOT exceed safe pressure rating - see tire manufacturer’s  specifications) until the leak seals
• Deflate tire to riding pressure when finished

Failures on tube seams, as well as cuts/tears of the tube are often not sealable by any sealant including ours. A patch kit is recommended for these cases.
