Reshaping Tyres?

(1/2) > >>

Swivel:
I bought a pair of some nos barefeet (not from Joe) a while back and they are all a bit, well, mis-shapen, someone had a heavy tyre arm that's for sure when removing them. Can I reshape these or are they fooked? Only on certain areas they are lifted up more. I'd like to use them for the london charity ride if poss so no major rush. Let me know what you'd suggest to sort them out.

ta,

Matt I'm confused, wont they just reshape when you pump them up?

graeme:
Mine were squashed from years of storage, were fine once i got 60psi in them though.

I had to tweek a little when blowing them up to get them seated even, just put 10 psi in, tweek a little then fill them up.

After a bit of riding they are fine now.

spesh:
as above mine were the same :daumenhoch:

Swivel:
Great. I tried the pump up but I think a good tweak and a ride with sort them out... thanks chaps  ;)
