Have you had problems with frequent flats on that bike?
I helped my stepdaughter's boyfriend get one, and it has been one flat after another. The first one exploded while I was pumping it up. (60 psi, IIRC) I chalked it up to cheap inner tubes from the factory. I checked around the inside of the wheel and there was nothing sharp there; spoke ends, etc.
I can't figure out what is causing them. The tires aren't underinflated or anything. I don't know if the tubes have enough volume for FlatOut or Slime.
