dscheidt: that rates a genuine LOL!!! Must have been a low pressure tire also with the tube about same diameter as
the inflated tire. Wow!!
I think the tire that blew out was a 700x28, the replacement tire he found was smaller, my spare tube was either for 32 or 50mm, depending on which bike I had. I don't know what pressure he ran, but I'm sure it was at least 60 or 80 psi.
