So with my trip to Spain all booked I'm wondering puncture prevention or puncture repair kit. What have you guys used successfully, the gel that goes in the tyre to seal a puncture, or a repair kit once the tyre has punctured?
Late September, sail on 17th to Bilbao, trundling down to Agres to stay with a mate, hopefully taking in the MotoGP at Aragon then back on the 25th from Santander
I'd take both. If it's dark and wet a quick blast with a can might be preferable. The sludge washes out. If it's fine and sunny you might want to use a repair kit. Either method is a temporary fix and neither takes up much room.
been using ultraseal , in the trye ,not noticed any handling problems, only puncture in 12yrs was in the one tyre i didnt put it in!! 1st used on trip to Italy . been using it ever since 1
Hello buddy I carried this when I did my Europe trip. Luckily never had a reason to use it . http://www.mandp.co.uk/index.php/default/stop-and-go-tubeless-puncture-pilot-kit.html
That kit is very similar to the one I carry with me. Fully gets my vote, I have used it a couple of times on my bike and others. The temporary plug has stayed in for more miles than it should until I change the tyre. As a tip, carry some rubber glue just to help keep the plug in place. Very easy to use and no mess
I can't offer anything useful regarding puncture kits, but I did a similar trip last Sept. ferry to Santander, down through the Pyrenees, few days at the Aragon GP and then back up to Zaragoza for a couple days before getting the ferry back from Santander to Plymouth. Loved every minute of it.
