Finally riding a big boys bike
My Luxury Liner got a flat tire and when I took the tire off, this is what I found. Thr rim strip was "melted" to the rim and bubbled up in a few places. Ate through the tube. Took about an hour to get the old rim strip off.

Anyone ever see something like this?

It's a messy pain. After getting the rim hot in the direct sun I get as much off as I can scraping then use laquer thinner to clean the resdiue.
 
Looks like I better check the front rim to make sure it's not doing it too.

Thanks...
