    That’s unacceptable, this is a manufacturer defect and is no way caused by faulty inflation, which isn’t a thing. If it breaks, it was defective, simple as that.

    If you need to do this and this so it doesn’t break, find a better brand.

      Its quite possible to have a pinch in the tube which will fail during inflation. In my experience, thats all brands; a tube simply can’t withstand 100 psi at a pinch point. This failure is not that, however. This is almost certainly a manufacturing defect, as metioned.

        A fold will work itself out, if you pinched it between the rubber or rim, nothing you could do would prevent it from rupturing other than reinstalling it correctly.
