I'm not even sure if quizzical is a word, but I couldn't think of anything else. I've been meaning to post this for some time now, but forgot about it. At the end of last season, around November, I had a really weird flat-tire experience. After coming back from a lengthy MTB ride, I noticed prior to loading my bike up, I had a slow-leaking flat. I went about checking the tube and tire for debris, etc. After thoroughly inspecting the tube and tire, I didn't find anything. So, I decided to just switch out the old tube for a new one and patch the old one when I got home. After swapping out the tubes, I began inflating the new one when *POP* the new tube just blew. The above pic is what it looked like. Anyone have a clue as to what the deal was?

I'm guessing the shard of glass under the tube on the left side.
you either pinched the tube between the tire and rim or there was a tear in the tire
