No, even put it under a large lighted magnifying lens that I use for electronics. Bizarre. Honestly don’t understand what happened.
The Vittoria N.EXT 32c measure 32.7mm on 21mm internal width wheel. A little less than the GP5K AS TR. Didn’t get beat up last night, felt good and a little different versus the AS TR. My experience with the N.EXT - one time I pulled out a construction staple and it sealed immediately. Last year it was almost impossible to remove the 28c N.EXT when it was time to replace, the bead didn’t want to come off the rim seat.
