Yes the thought of an inner bead lock crossed my mind, but it shouldn’t need to be done with quality name brand rims and new tyres… My intention was to have them fitted to the rims then swap the wheels over between sessions… at the moment I don’t even have a useable wheel…
Also as you mentioned putting inter bead locks is just another potential 3 places to get an air leak…
As I spoke to someone at the track who told me this was not an uncommon problem with the maxxis front, I was just wanting to if anyone else could verify that? And if so is it a particular batch or just a general issue?
If it is I’m hopping maybe Maxxis may have a solution?
