• Fit the other bead of the tyre into the rim groove (Fig. 3) starting from
the point opposite the valve, and continue around the whole circumfe-
rence of the rim, taking care not to pinch the tube.
• Wet the tyre bead and rim profile with soap and water.

• Inflate the inner tube until the two tyre beads go into place correctly
(Fig. 4).
• Deflate the tyre completely and check the correct adherence of the bead
around the whole rim.
If the tyre is not fitted correctly the bead will separate from the tyre if defla-
ted.
• Inflate the tyre again and respect the working pressure.
• Screw back the valve ring.
• Put back the valve cap.

To deflate the tire:
1)remove the cap,
2) unscrew the valve,
3) press and hold down the valve to obtain the required pressure, then,
4) tighten the valve,
5) replace the cap.
WARNING!
Never exceed the maximum inflation pressure recommended by
the tire manufacturer or for the cross section of the clincher tire
you are using. Excessive tire pressure reduces grip on the road and
increases the risk that the tire will unexpectedly burst.
Inflation pressure that is too low reduces tire performance and
increases the probability of sudden and unexpected loss of tire
pressure. In addition, premature wear and damage to the rim may
occur.
WARNING!
Incorrect tire pressure could cause sudden and unexpected tire
failure or loss of control of the bicycle, resulting in an accident,
personal injury or death.
