He set off from the lights one time a bit spirited like and it ripped the repair out of the tyre. I guess they are only supposed to be a temporary fix like, but I thought I'd mention it as something to bear in mind.They are - "mushroom" type patches, put on the inside of the tyre are safer. This is a "limp to a vulcanizer shop" solution IMO.
I also carry a similar kit with the tools, patches, glue, CO2 cartridges, but use a hand pump - like a real man! :rollin
Did anyone mention carrying a spare valve? I think it's not a bad idea.
Most things done in a hurry need to be done again - patiently.
