Repeated inner tube punctures. Continental & Halfords. Mavic & Araya rims.

I'm a bit of a tart how valves go through holes...
Made some bell shaped bits for mine all smooth and rounded that pinch over the top of the rim tape...details..

Didn't stop a teeny shard of glass taking a super accurate shot at severing one of the few carcass reinforcements in the tyre casing though...

Usually caused by the inner tube moving around the inside by the tyre under braking, also caused by a rough burr on the inside of the valve hole on the rim.

Check the valve hole on the rim for rough edges, if still happening some talc inside the tyre stops the tyre gripping the inner tube and dragging it round while braking.
