i miss the one i had that i was arguing over. like a month ago i pumped it to full pressure. the tank expanded to the point where you could see the tank pulling against it's mount in the casing. it left about a half-inch gap between where the tank is normally flush with the shell. that was definitely not a good sign. next day, i did it again, only to have the front tank suffer a HUGE gash down the side from being over-stretched. but the bladder, however, managed to stay in tact, surprisingly.
