Sorry to hear you are dissatisfied with our tires, Biker456... FYI, our new Malcolm and Sanford tires are built at the same factory and to the same technical specifications as Fly's Ruben tires, and all the Maxxis tires. That factory's name is Cheng Shin, and they've been in the game for years. The broken beads you experienced were probably on SNAFU Knob Job or Rim Job tires. This problem went away years ago when we switched to flex Kevlar beads in '07. When you have warranty problems with bike parts, you should contact the manufacturer and ask them to do something about it. I'll be happy to send you a new pair of tires if you contact us. Thanks!
