@Rich I remember now that got a Trek. Is it the Jackrabbit Race you are entering?

I run tubeless tires. When the tires take a big hit they tend to push air past the tire’s bead(burping). Once that happens the tire has less air. I was hoping it would make it the rest of the race but even babying it the air would just not stay in.

yeah, bummer. What does it mean to “burp” the air from your tire? You hit something really hard?

I have a Trek EX-7 that I got in Hawaii just before we left. Doing a 9 hr race in Birmingham, AL as a team with one other person. They are good trails for the southeast. http://chainbusterracing.com/
