  1. My rear tire has all sorts of cuts like this, like others said just pick out the debris and carry on!

  2. Yes. Pick out the glass or whatever and if you really worried to get something stuck in there again, put in a dab of shoe glue.

  3. if it gets any worse i’d prob run a slightly lower psi to minimize the exposure the tube might have from being unprotected. for good measure i’d patch the inside of the tire itself.

    I had a cut like that on my tubeless. Never really properly sealed even after I patched it. The patch held up for a while, but once I started doing hard cornering, it would open up and spray air and sealant.

    Pick out debris. Put a drop of crazy glue in the cut. Deflate. Leave overnight. Reinflate.

  6. I got rid of my Gp5000s because they are a little bit more prone to punctures than I thought. Even tiny shards of glass could penetrate it. I mean the tires are still usable but the stuff always made my tubes go in the bin.
    I love this tire but it has not enough protection for the area, where I am riding my bike. Or I just got very unlucky with the debris that I accidentally picked up.

    It’s still good. Just make sure there’s no debris in the cut. If there is, pick out the debris.

  8. If i didnt have a new tire. If i popped a tube id do the dollar trick over it before putting the patched one back in.
