I have been using slime tubes for a few months. I felt that the rear tyre needed air too often
(every second day, though only a few strokes), so I took the tube out and inspected it. No sign
whatever of any self- sealed punctures (I'm also using slime liners). I inflated the tube and
checked it in water. Not a bubble. I left it to see whether it would go down at all. It hasn't. Now
I want to put it back on the bike.
And here's the problem.
When I press the little *** at the end of the presta valve, the slime comes bubbling out. I don't
want that to happen, so I stopped. But without letting a lot of the air out, I can't get the tube
back on and the tyre in place.
Apparent stalemate.
What do others do?
