Sounds stupid but I recently got a set of new 28mm marathon schwalbes from the store and know the back one is unusable I think. There was a blow out (2 days after what I thought was a puncture.) I just looked at the tire and there was a bulge and took the tire off and could see the bead of the tire, metal and all. I could even stick a pen through it. The hole is right next to the bead. Oh ya the puncture was from right where the hole was. Does anyone have a clue why this could happen? As I just bought the tire from sports depo a week ago is there any possibility to save the tire for future use( or likelihood of return/exchange)?
While I deal with this problem I through my old 38mm on the old from and the back and kept the 28mm on the front. Can anyone foresee any problems with this?
I will probably get a new 28 mm for the back but a different brand (as store don't seem to carry these schwalbes much here), anything I need to watch out for or be careful of?
Sorry for all the questions I'm still quite new at this.
