tube between the tire bead and the wheel rim. If you have trouble getting the last few inched of bead over the edge of the

Broken Spoke:
A wheel with a loose or broken spoke is much weaker than a fully tensioned wheel.
If you break a spoke while on a ride,you will have to ride home much more lowly and carefully because the weakened
wheel could break additional spokes and become useless.
WARNING:
A broken spoke seriously weakens the wheel and may cause it to wobble,striking the brakes or the frame. Riding with a
broken spoke can cause you to lose control and fall.
