Never had one quite this bad before.
The screw actually went into the bed of the rim where the tube normally would be and made a rough burr. I had to "file" it down with a rock or risk it creating another puncture on my spare. Crazy. Still managed to get in 25 before work and saw a Bald Eagle along the way so all was not lost.
Dang!
Haven't seen anything like that before, but given the crazy roads we have here in chicago, I am kinda surprised that it isn't a more common occurrence!!
Glad you still got your ride in :-)
It happened in a turn and made a terrible clanking noise each time it came around. Scared the heck out of me. I am afraid to look at the stays of my carbon frame tonight as that screw was sort of off to the side. I must have been standig on end to go in like that.
That looks like a sheet rock or siding screw to me. They do have very sharp pointed ends!
Wow! Good thing you didn't get hurt!:p
Eagle though
I do wood working, could you mail me the screw??🙄🙄🙄
Gotta love it......."still managed to get a 25 in". Excellent. Atta boy!
