6. Mount one tire bead onto the rim using your hands. If tire bead will not seat by hand, carefully use a
plastic tire lever to seat the tire bead.
Check your tires for directional arrows printed on the sidewalls to indicate rotation of wheel. Not all
tires have directional arrows. Install the tire with the manufacturer's logo near the rim valve hole.
This will allow you to quickly find the cause of a puncture.
7. Inflate tube enough to just hold its shape (not pictured).
8. Install the tube valve into rim valve hole and align valve so it is perpendicular to the rim. Install the
rest of the tube between the tire and the rim making sure the tube does not get twisted or bunched.
9. Install second bead onto the rim using your hands. If tire bead will not seat by hand, carefully use a
plastic tire lever to finish mounting the tire. Be careful to avoid pinching the inner tube against the rim.
10. Inflate the tire to low pressure. Inspect both sides of rim for proper tire seating and for any sign of
the inner tube sticking out. Re-install if necessary.
11. Inflate the tire to full pressure. There should be no hops or side-to-side movement in the tire when it
is rotating (not pictured).
SRAM wheels are rated to a maximum of 125 psi (8,6 Bar).
