Bike tire issue? tire comes out of rim.?
So I have a mountain bike and I messed up my front tire while bringing it up The stairs from the basement a while back. The from wheel got caught on a step and I pulled it up, and my tire pulled off the rim. The tire popped out of the metal sides of the rim, and when I tried to ride it after that (haha, don't ask why I did,) but the tire would slide out, so that id literally be riding on my rims. Should I just tuck it in and blow it up, or what? Lol.

im guessing the tire was flat when you brought it up or the tire wouldnt have come off
yes the tube is basicaly same size as tire
push it in and fill it with air
if it goes flat
it either already had a hole
or
you pinched it when you tried to ride it flat
youll need a new tube unless it can be patched
i always go for new

Id say to pump the tires and see if it will stay put. If not you may need new wheels

Check to see if the rim wall is bent, if not, remount the tire correctly, reinflate to the pressure embossed on the sidewall of the tire, and see if it holds.
