Were your flats caused by nails or pinch flats.

The guys I went down with were on WR250's and they were trailering so I put mine on the trailer as well. I really wanted to ride down though.
First flat was a pinch flat, after that it was because I didn't have the correct size rear tube which caused the next two. I finished the weekend on a 110/90-19 extreme duty tube that I bought for $20 from a local in a pickup truck in Prisideo, still not sure how that happened. The last flat was a slow leak in the front going down the paved road after a day in the State Park, fixed that one with some slime and CO2. Never thought about fire ants, I'll definitely keep that in mind from now on, thanks. |
