I was having trouble setting the bead with my floor pump so I ran by a shop and had them set it. Took it home, added sealant and pumped it up. Tubeless tires and tubeless rims. Have ran these rims tubeless for two years. New tires. Rode 25 miles fine, then another ride and at mile 40 riding down the street in a straight line the tire just blew off. Why did this occur and what did I do wrong? 700x38c gravelking SK. Thanks!

How much pressure was it pumped up to?
I’ve had a two different tubeless tires blow off a rim like this and the manufacturer wrote it off as a defect and sent me a free replacement each time. One was Schwalbe and the other was a Panaracer.
Hookless rims with too much pressure in the tyres?
What rim, what pressure?
What rims/wheels and what tire? Pressure?
Without knowing what rim and tire it’s almost certainly hookless. Hooked rims wouldn’t let the tire come off like that. It’s either tire pressure issue, or it could be a tire width issue. Hookless rims are limited on tire width stated by the manufacturer.
