That is a nail bent over. Picked it up about 10 miles ago this morning and only lost a few psi before stans sealed. Prior to my 11 mile ride this afternoon, do I pull out and hope for a reseal or leave in and hope it doesn't wiggle?

:cheers:

Pull it out. It will either push in further or fall out eventually. It it happens on a ride, that would be a pain.

right, but the question is: do i ride it home as is or remove prior to riding 11 miles to better tools/more stans. With only trail tools, I'm thinking leave it in.

I'd leave it in.

So how'd it go?

Ha ha! If you leave it in long enough it'll eventually slip out... On the trail, if I was confident I had plenty of fresh Stans (and a backup patch kit) I'd yank it out and spin the tire to help seal it. Might avoid further damage. If not confident, leave it in. Let us know how it went.

Left it in and biked LPQ canyon gnar and didn't seem to drop any psi.

Pulled out shortly after getting home, rather large nail, seems odd to have picked it up:

Spun wheel and stans seemed to reseal, so likely could have made it home if removed along the trail. I sure am a fan of tubeless.
