I'm putting Kenda K270s on the DR350, rear is all set, and yesterday I got the front tire mounted and balanced, but now there's a hop, it looks to me like the bead is not popping in one section. I used lots of powder inside the tire and on the tube (new IRC) and soapy water on the beads. Usually I don't like to use more than 45 PSI, but did go to 55 once, and inflated/deflated it about 6 times. And left it over night at 45 PSI, but it's still hopping this morning.
What maximum PSI is safe to use?
This morning I'll try again lubing the beads again thoroughly. It could be a defect in the tire, I suppose, but I'm not ready to start a return, it took 3 weeks for these to arrive from Bike Bandit. I'm just happy that I didn't pinch the tube. I used to be good at this, this is the first one I've done in years, though.
Suggestions appreciated ...
