Dear All,
Firtst of all, a happy and, above all, healthy new Year.
I got my wheels last week and installed TPU tubes fom Barbieri NXT Road 65.
I have not installed the wheels in my bike (waitung for the frame)
Today I heard a loud bang and the tire was flat.After I removed the inner tube, I saw that there was a hole in one of the rim's recesses (see pictures)
I installed the inner tube without rim tape, as I thought that was only needed for tubeless setups.
Do you know this problem?
