Troubleshooting

Tire won't seat on the rim.

Ensure the tire bead is properly seated around the rim. Use a compressor for initial inflation or try soapy water to help seal the bead.

Tire loses air quickly.

Check the valve core for tightness and ensure sealant is properly sealing the tire. Add more sealant if necessary.

Poor grip in certain conditions.

Adjust tire pressure to optimize grip based on the trail conditions. Experiment with different pressures to find the best balance.
