Troubleshooting
Tyre deflates quickly after installation
Check for leaks in the inner tube, ensure the valve stem is properly seated, and verify that the tyre bead is correctly sealed against the rim.
Tyre wobbles during use
Confirm the tyre is properly seated on the rim and inflated to the correct pressure. Ensure there are no visible deformities on the tyre or rim.
Difficulty mounting the tyre
Ensure the inner tube is not pinched between the tyre bead and the rim. Partially inflating the inner tube can help seat the tyre bead. Using tyre levers carefully is recommended.
Reduced grip in wet conditions
While the ribbed tread enhances grip, always exercise caution in wet conditions. Ensure tyre pressure is optimal and avoid sudden acceleration or braking.
