Not one puncture in about five months! Thanks Oldskool for the wheelset with Joe No more Flats kit. That system uses standard tyres with slime, and a kit around a standard rim.
So, tonight I had to tackle my first puncture that slime wouldn't seal.
The Hutchenson repair kit uses Cyanoacrylate adhesive! And the instructions say keep the patch under pressure for 1 minute.
So there I was with four fingers stuck to the tyre. Lucky I didn't tend to that scratch down below during it all.
Surely a tyre patch adhesive needs to be flexible? Dunno how long the superglue patch will last.
Patching a Joe Tubeless set-up can be done but I wouldn't like to do it on the side of a mountain.
Greg.
