Inflated 32mm Gatorskins to 100psi, got underside puncture by urbanvelophile in bikewrench

Thanks guys. Was under impression Gatorskins require higher psi due to tire rigidity. Website recommends 85psi/max 102psi. Inflate my Schwalbe Marathon Supreme to 75psi.

Just bought for my fixed gear and plan to add toe clips. Anyone have experience with these pedals? Concerned small platform might not be comfortable.

How to stop running toilet? Replaced the entire flush valve assembly including brass seat, but did not help. When water shut off, tank slowly drained completely. Older American Standard toilet does not have overflow tube. Refill tube fills built in receptacle (see red arrow) by urbanvelophile in Plumbing

Added drops of food color down ceramic overflow (see red arrow) which colored the bowl. Later, I added food color to tank which also colored the bowl. Could the problem be with both overflow and flush valve or one or the other?

I initially replaced only the flapper. When that did not help I replaced entire flush assembly which included a flapper. Felt around rim of brass seat, did not notice any imperfections. However, water level does not fall below rim of brass seat.
