Always like to keep a couple of spares in stock incase I rip a sidewall or something. In the past I could only afford wire beads, but now I'm in the heady world of kevlar folding beads! These come folded, and is there any harm in leaving them in this folded state for six months or so - or should I let them stretch out to their full 26" roundness...

UV probably more damaging I'd of thought - so bst stored in dark
