I got a new wheel set today, and i changed over the tyre and inner tube to the new front wheel, and when i pump it up, the bead pops out where the valve is.

Anyone know why this happens?

Thanks in advance:)

    Sounds like you've not seated it properly. When you are checking the tyre seating push the valve into the tyre so the tyre can get under the tubes valve seat.
