At Cooper River, I flatted my baby Limus rear. It was it's second season, and the sidewalls were a little beat up ...I had a 3/4 inch gash, game over.
I have 2 back up identical tires sitting in standby, so I had my pro tire gluer (@jimvreeland) set it up.
Yesterday at HPCX, Two practice laps and it was cool. Then on the second lap, the back end started washing out on me, I looked down, and FML, another flat.
I like these tires... They're light, pretty fast rolling but still enough grip for a few slimy sections.... But 2 flats in 15 minutes? F that.
So anyway, I just dumped some Stan's in there and got it to hold air. Then I dumped some more in. Seems good.
Should I trust it ? Or should I have jim glue my last back up baby Limus? Or should I buy some tires that don't flat at sight of a root, or acorn, or rabbit?
Confession, I already ordered 2 Clement MXPs, but if I don't need to put them on right away, I'd rather not. They're more of an all around tire.
Help me @Delish , @seanrunnette, @The Heckler , @pearl , @anybodyelsewhohasaclue.
