Saga of the flat bike tire.

[jelee1311]

I feel ypur pain I've had 5 flats in 3 weeks (only 1 pinch flat),and I have kevlar tires. My husbands flat tire karma rubbed off on me because in the 8 months previous I had 1 flat.Of course my fixing these weren't quite as extensive as yours.Thank goodness for the kindness of strangers

I have gone through 3 yrs. of cycling where I probably piled in over 9,000 kms. during that period but no flats. But later things averaged out to around 1 flat annually at least for about 3,000 kms. or more annually of cycling.

They stuck in kevlar tube?. It was a Specialized thorn-resistant tube...

I hear ya on this! My husband has had at least a half dozen flats in the last month, 3 on one ride! (he flatted, changed the tire, flatted again- no more tubes, so he called me and while walking to the gas station, flatted the other tire!).
The next ride we went on, my rear tire started going low at about mile 30 of a 36 mile ride. I was able to air it up and make it back to the shop without having to replace it out on the road, but I feel like the gremlins have found me now!
