In all this replacing of tubes, has anyone bothered to look for where and why the flats happen? i.e., found the hole in the tube and checked the corresponding area on the tire and wheel.
This is pretty basic, *especially* if a wheel is flatting repeatedly.
My guess is there's a tiny little burr on a spoke hole (that got me once) or something stuck in the tire.
