Had a flat, and before remounting the Rumpkin, I saw some rubber was peeling off of the bottom of the bead. About a 2 inch long piece.
Bead is ok, just the rubber from the inside edge of the tire peeled off.
Is this still safe to ride on?

Yes it is safe.  That's just the extra rubber that glooges out of the mold when they make them.  Glooge is a technical term.

Good to hear, because I don't have a spare. Hopefully a Marathon will be arriving in the mail soon, followed by Hetres later this month (I hope).
