Anyways, being too lazy to fix the flat I put on a new tubular ( just applying the glue onto the old glue ). Everything is fine and dandy until yesterday when I notice that the valve is bending to one side. It was then that I noticed ( much to my shock ) that there was no adheasion between the rim and tire at all. This I found very peculiar because in the summer when I got a flat I just put the new glue on top of the old layer and I never had any problems. Is there anything I can do about this or should I remove the old layer of glue altogether, and if so what is the best way. Peter Mielke pswmielke@watnot
