PaRtZ Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 I've been having a wee bit of tyre fold at the moment and thought my psi was too low, so pumped it up but still experianced it on some rocks. In terms of riding style, is there anyway I can avoid it?If it matters, we're talking mod here Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euro Braker Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 I have the same problem. I have Creepy Crawlers and I find with a bit of pressure (25-30psi) I still rim out. I came to the conclusion I have a too thin rim (38mm) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex.loves.boys Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Land on things allot more straighter i found the more sideways or more of an angle you land e.t.c it folds allot more. other than that i dont know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IOLO Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 but sometimes i just got to land sideways to get a line right !just land smooth as you canor lean with it and in a wall rideish way.or just let you rtyre fold to fu<k and see if u can deal with it as a challengeloliolo.

ramps Posted May 20, 2006 Report Share Posted May 20, 2006 Wider rims if you can afford it, on my bike I have wide rims front and rear and never get tire roll even at like 10 psi, I have an Echo on the back and hog on front 2.5 rear 2.2 front can't fault it. My rim is still in one piece n' all! Must be one of the longest surviving Echo rims ever! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
