Today when I went to Kawasaki showroom for some service issues, they showed a demo of Seelin TL which is a fluid pumped inside the tube. It seems if you have any puncture, I'll block the hole and you even need not repair it! They bought one vehicle and punctured it with a nail. After a while, they removed the nail and rotated the wheel. They said the fluid had blocked the hole and there was no need of any puncture repair. Has anybody used it? Any side-effects? 團體制服
A mate went on a riding holiday with some friend's through France, 2 of them got puncture's and bought some Tire Slime for a temporary fix. They did a lot of km's over their trip, and the next day after fixing their tyre's both had a bad vibration's at highway speed through the repaired tyre. Both ended up having the tyre's taken off and repaired properly, balanced the wheel's and refitted
get yourself one of the repair plug kits, http://www.supercheapauto.com.au/on...-Kit-11-Piece.aspx?pid=342772#Recommendations http://www.supercheapauto.com.au/on...Plugs-5-Piece.aspx?pid=130235#Recommendations I've done over half a dozen repairs with those. and they can fit on the bike in the tool spot. It'll keep you mobile, but they do need to then be repaired properly from the inside with a puncture repair kit. For that it's worth getting a pair of tyre levers, use a 50mm piece of PVC conduit cut along the length to protect the rims and some clamps to break the bead I use these - https://www.bunnings.com.au/irwin-300mm-quick-grip-bar-clamp_p5860120 Basically you remove the valve to deflate the tyre, then use the clamps to break the bead and hold the tyre crimped to get the tyre levers in place, then it's some swearing and cleverness in equal measure to get one edge off I did find that I had to clean the inside surface with solvent and scuff it really well with sandpaper to get rid of the surface sheen and for the patches to take No idea what it costs to get a puncture repaired at a bike shop, I'm, guessing by the number of second hand tyres for sale with puncture holes cirlced that they get replaced rather than repaired, which sux if you've got a tyre with 75% or more tread left
I wouldnt bother about getting bike tyres patched myself, would be alright on a scooter or postie bike, but not riding a 1000cc sportbike at pace. Maybe different story for a commuter bike though,
I have used similar products in my dirt bikes/quads for years. They mostly work as a get you home type of stuff, but you do have to get them fixed properly. For the road it would get you home, but would not trust it at high speed over a long trip.
