Re: Slow puncture: What would you do?
Sticky String is a temp repair only - its best to get it mushroomed properly ASAP.
As well as making a mess, Ultraseal etc means that the mushroom repair plugs are no longer viable, so its best avoided.

Re: Slow puncture: What would you do?
Well after having it in my own tyre I'd trust it again, so 2500 miles isn't exactly temporary.
I wouldn't use the sealing spray foam though. |

Re: Slow puncture: What would you do?
Depending where and if it is a puncture --a professional mushroom repair.
Riding about on a wheel you know has a defect is not good,be it valve or puncture. Should it decide to blow you will have little or no warning,so evaluate what your life is worth |
