Hey all,

 

Little problem when replacing my tire tubes. 

I can get it all back together but the only problem is around the area of the valve there is something stopping the tire from coming back down into position properly. So when looking at the tire there is a bulge above the valve.

 

Any thoughts on how I can sort this out?

 

Thanks

Scott

Before you imflate tire, push valve stem firmly into tire by a few cm, then make sure bead around the area is seated...and then pull valve stem back into position.

This should work.

Report back with results.
