First off I have loved every minute of having these tires mounted on my Warbird. They eat up the sandy gravel we have in the Platte River Valley in Nebraska with no issue. I rode them in the DK100 this past weekend, topping them off with Orange Seal sealant the night before the race. Previously, I have only used Stan's sealant with these tires. Admittedly they have never sealed great with my Stan's wheels, but the pros far outweighed the cons with these tires. After surviving the DK and then putting another 30 miles on them at home, I inspected them last night and found more than a handful of spots blistering on the rear tire. Has anyone else had this problem with these tires, or WTB tires in general? I will undoubtedly get another set of WTB tires (eyeing the Riddlers) but want to make sure I don't run into this problem again. Anyone have an idea where I went wrong with the Nanos?
I'm on my 2nd set and haven't noticed any issues. Finished the 200 flat-free so they get two thumbs up. Can you post a picture of what the blistering looks like?
They worked fine for me on DK200 also. I did go over them a few nights after the ride and found a couple holes on the rear that orange sealant plugged up quickly, never lost any noticable amount of air pressure during the ride either. They were new, my first set.
