Brittle tire bead, you have to be very careful

Our bike shop installed these super motos on our two e-bikes. Then we had two quick hits on the board. One ejection per wheel. The wire pulled through the rubber at the bead and the tire's sidewall split 2–3 inches. When I changed the tires I saw that the rubber around the wire bead was very thin and quite soft. Even if the tire is carefully fitted without tools, the bead can be damaged. I made a picture to illustrate. I also cut one of the already punctured tires in half to see the intended puncture protection. photo attached. Too bad, the tires are doing well.

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • I don't remember, but there was something
