DANGER!
G
Tubular tyres must be glued carefully on the rim by an expert. Insufficient gluing
can result in sudden pressure loss or make the tyre come off.
DANGER!
G
Brake heat can loosen the gluing. Therefore, always brake with both brakes
simultaneously and give the rims a chance to cool down between the braking
processes.
Tyre removal
Deflate the tyre completely (d). To remove the tubular push it a little to the side of the
rim at a place opposite the valve until a gap appears and the tyre starts to come off
(e). If the tyre remains tight, stick a tyre lever into the gap and lift the tyre off the rim
(f).
Replacing an individual tube is impossible. Instead you have to mount a complete
tubular tyre. En route the tyre cannot be glued and is consequently not tight on the
rim even when inflated.
Therefore, be sure to ride back very slowly and carefully by taking the shortest way
possible. Back home, you have to glue the tubular tyre, as described in the following.
TUBULAR TYRES
Tubular tyres are the first choice among professionals; they are basically different
from the most widely used chlincher or folding tyres and the inner tube system.
The tube is sewed into the tyre and must be glued on special tubular tyre rims (a).
A reliable system is only provided by using a glue (b) suitable for rim and tyre which
is applied in a careful and professional way. In case of a puncture the tyre must be
replaced completely. As the glue is missing, the tyre will not sit as securely on the rim
as before. Therefore, after a puncture ride back very carefully by taking the shortest
possible way.
During long downhill rides there is the risk with the tubular tyre system that the glue
softens and that the tyre will loose its secure fit. Risk of sudden pressure loss and risk
of fall! Get, therefore, used to brake with both brakes simultaneously (c). Do not let
the brakes drag, but release the brakes from time to time to give the rims a chance to
cool down a little. If you are in doubt, it is recommended that you stop.
The gluing is best done by a skilled technician of your BERGAMONT dealer. If you
want to try it on your own, read the description and observe the instructions, in
particular those with regard to the waiting period and the repeated applying of the
glue to build up a sufficiently thick adhesive bed.
Also observe the instructions of the tyre and rim manufacturers with regard to the
proper glue and to possibly required special measures. Some tyre manufacturers
have posted videos on the internet describing the mounting of their products, e.g.
