    There is a way of reseating the bead on a jumbo-sized tire, if you don't have access to a smarter way of doing it ... here's an example that happened to go well:



    As far as I can tell, there isn't any tire manufacturer that recommends it, and there's a delicate matter of how much kaboom juice you spray in first, that figures into your odds of survival.

    ^ Good reason to stop back a bit, when someone ends up stranded in the intersection.

    The car was in another lane... turned into the bike's lane while reversing... just over 2 seconds to react, the guy did the right thing by not running the red light to get out of the way, and saving his body before it was under the car with the bike.

    Yeah, just nuts that he backed up THAT far, totally inattentive. Sorry for lowering the caliber of this thread, btw: love it.
