I just took it out of the box and pumped it.No it is not. I assume that you didn't pump it up outside of the tyre?
Yes that's what I didIt's normal if you pump it up before you put it in the tyre.
Yes that's what I did
Thanks mate. I'm new to cycling I've only been doing it for a year. But changed my tyres about 6 times in that space of timePerfectly normal, don't worry about it.
