    Flat Tyre

    Dear Riders
    I was in Hay on Wye yesterday with my good lady and our new TA when a chap with a AT came up and asked if I knew of a puncture repair establishment in the area. Unfortunatly I was of no help (if it was you SORRY!) but it got me thinking (which could be dangerious at my age). Are there any quick fixes for holed tubed tyres as there is with tubeless, ie GOOP you put in before the puncture, or foam you put in after the puncture. The above seem to be recomended for tubeless only.....fat mal

    I carry a pucture repair kit with me (and tyre irons etc) always. You don't get punctures often, but when you do they really can spoil the whole day if you can't fix it.
