Before mounting the tire also apply a film of glue to
the base tape. To complete the adhesive bed add
one last film of glue. If necessary, you can leave a
section of five to ten centimeters without glue at a
place just opposite the valve to make it easier to re-
move the tire again at a later date.
Let the topmost layer dry for a short time and, while it
still feels syrupy, place the wheel on the ground with
the valve hole facing upward. Inflate the tire until it
starts to round and then stick the valve through the
valve hole and press it firmly against the rim. Make
sure the sides of the tire do not touch the adhesive
bed, since your tire will otherwise look smudgy right
away.
If you have left the section opposite the valve hole
free of glue, you need not be concerned about glue
smearing on the ground or dirt getting into the glue
when you place the wheel on the ground.
Take hold of the tire right and left of the valve with
both hands, pull it vigorously downward and work it
bit by bit into the base of the rim
(e) until you have
about 20 centimeters left to go.
Starting from the top again on either side of the valve
pull the tire down with your hands, letting them grad-
ually slip down to the not yet mounted section.
Keeping the tire taut by holding your fingers against
the rim and your thumbs on the tire, brace the wheel
against your hips. Heave the tire with both thumbs
into the base of the rim (f) .
When the tire is seated in the base, it has to be cen-
tered, as it will rarely run true right away. Clamp the
wheel in the mounting stand again and spin it. If the
tread does not run exactly in the center or if it swerves
to the side at any place, lift it up at that place, twist it
a little into true and let it go again.
When the tire runs smoothly in the center, take the
wheel off the mounting stand and inflate the tire
to approximately half its nominal pressure. Lean
your hands on the ends of the axle and quick-re-
lease skewers and roll the wheel a few meters on
the ground (g) . As you roll the wheel, vary between
pressing it vertically downward and at a slant to either
side (h) .
If the tire still runs true during the final check, inflate
it to its maximum pressure, deflate until you have
reached two thirds of the pressure and wait 8 hours
at least or even better a whole day, before setting off
for the first time. If possible, store the tire at warm
temperatures! Beforehand adjust the pressure of the
newly mounted tire according to the manufacturer’s
recommendations and to your own needs.

A poorly glued tubular tire can come off
the rim. Risk of an accident!
