tyre problem - out of the rim...

Hey,

I have a Monty pro race rear tyre, that is out of the rim when i'm riding...now that's working good for a week because i added glue(as you can see in the pic) but i guess it will not work after a wheel puncture. It's almost new and i dont want to buy a new one. Any advice? Thanks.

I know of a roadie bike 'get you home' where you use several sections of duct tape wrapped around a deformed or ripped tyre bead along the length (running left to right on your photo) of the problem area. The idea being that it builds up the bead thickness and the tyre then grabs like usual. That might work?? Can't say I've ever used this idea though...

Maybe simple push down on that part of the bead from flat and inflate as usual, that's never failed for me with any sketchy 2nd/3rd/millionth hand tyres I've used. Maybe do it using a compressor so this is not a two person job?
