Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Pinterest Bluesky Threads I Noticed that my WTB Resolute tire has part of the edge of the bead missing / worn off. Possibly due to tire lever? Is this fine to ride, or should I replace it? Thanks! by maartendc1 Bicycling Bike Bike Repair Biking Cycling Repair

its_the_terranaut on September 14, 2025 2:16 pm Is it running tubeless? If so, I’d change it. You need a full bead to keep tubeless tyres seated, else risk it blowing off cornering etc.
