Hi and Question

Post by JRR »

Hi All,
My first post. Great to find a busy and thriving cycling forum just as I'm getting back in the saddle after a ten year absence. Just bought a BMX Cruiser - my first bike in ten years, and I've got a question I'm hoping someone can shed some light on.

I've bought some tyre slime and am having trouble getting it into my front tyre. Went in the back tyre fine, but no matter how hard I squeeze the bottle I just cannot get a single ml to go into the front tube. I've removed the valve core as instructed, and followed instructions to the letter just as I did, successfully, on the rear wheel. Tyres are 22" x 2.3" with inner tubes and schrader valves. Bike, tyres and inner tubes are absolutely brand new and have never been ridden on.

Any help anyone can give would be much appreciated.

Many Thanks
John
