Last Wednesday I fitted puncture resistant liners to my tyres (700x23) - fed up with punctures in
the winter. Put the bike on the trainer afterwards and rode for half an hour...until the rear tyre
went flat...puncture. I thought I may have nipped the tube when easing the tyre over the last bit of
rim with levers, although the puncture appeared to be on the tread side of the tube. Repaired the
puncture and refitted without use of tubes...came down in the morning...flat again. Repaired in
Friday evening..all was well. Went out for 100km ride on Sunday...no problems. 2 hours ago I put in
a 1 hour session on the trainer...took the bike off...puncture.
What's going on? I've checked the tyre inner, I've checked the rim tape. It only seems to happen
when on the Tacx trainer. I'm going to repair it tomorrow because it's ****** me off tonight! I'll
mark the tube where it is punctured and check around that area specifically.
Any suggestions in the mean time?
Regards, and feeling as deflated as my tube...
