Picked up an inner tube in hellfords to try and pop my smorgasbord on the rim before to let it settle before trying tubeless, started to pump it up was only about 40psi and BANG! Ears are hurting and scared the sh** out of the missus.

The missus jumped that high.

Is there anything you don't have a gif of? 😉

An 18 year old lad on the farm next door to me was killed by using a compressor to blow up a truck tyre, just like that gif. Poor barstard.

Had a go sans tube with some fairy liquid... managed to get the beads to seat fairly easily with my £5 aldi trackpump. Is leaking a bit around the beads but should be fine when I stick some sealant in.
