New Flat Tyre Repair option ( Rubber Screws )
 
I thought I'd post this at it seems interesting. I 've sent for some and hopefully will never have to use them. I have the old type sticky-rope repair kit under my rear seat. I would use some rubber cement on one of these screws just in case.

Good enough to get home methinks :)

I'd be interested to know how well that holds once you start driving on it, and the squidgy tyre rubber starts moving around that solid screw.

I know what you mean and that's why I'd add a bit of the rubber cement :)

in one of the comments it says they are coated with a sticky substance to aid sealing

Great :)

Being a ,"Belt and Braces " guy I think I'd add a bit anyway as I wouldn't know how old or good the supplied bit was before use. I have several tubes of rubber cement that come with cheap bicycle inner tube repair kits :)

The link below video led to American Amazon site - 'these cannot be shipped to your location'

These and a lot more available on UK Amazon
