Puncture Repair Kits

[rosstheboss]

Are they all the same?

Any horror stories or highly recommended ones?

Are glueless ones any good?

I can recommend glueless patches from park

In all my years of repairing punctures I've only ever bought the cheapest of the cheap kits and never had a patch fail.

Although saying that I do like the idea of the glueless ones, but not used one yet.

Park super patches you say?

I only have a few left, let me know how many you want & I'll see what I can do

Park patches for on-the-move and if you have the time then buy Wilkinson's 90p puncture repair outfit which is an exact replica of the old Raleigh ones ( frayed orange edges, tube of glue etc. ) for indestructable repairs.

I use the slime glueless patches on my boardman because they are more convienient when on the trails, any other time i use tesco value puncture kit at the bargain price of 99p

I can't remember the last time I repaired a puncture. Tubes are so cheap now it's easier to just pop in a new one.

I use Lezyne ones, brilliant and come with a handy bit of tyre boot just in case.

leeches work for me everytime (apart from big holes and snakebite, but thats obvious)

very nutritious if you have nothing else on the trail too

(oh and retro!)
