Hi Guys,

Got a bit of a problem, i have had two valves rip out of two different enduro tubes on my Dakar in less than 500 kms... ???
I had the first one done at a bike shop as i didn't have the time to do it myself so don't know what it looked like when the tire came off, but i took this one off myself and it looks like the tube was bunched up near the valve, is the tire possibly rotating on the rim causing the tube to move and ripping out the valves?
What can i do to stop this?

Thanks
