Hi guys, I'm REXER from the zrx owners club. I found this thread after a search for temporary puncture repair info.
Today I had a front tyre puncture about 130 miles from home and the RAC insisted on a temporary repair rather than the recovery service that I also have with them. There were no tyre shops open unfortunately, so I was offered a temporary repair or pay for the recovery myself. The manager was called out because I refused a repair. Theres no way I would ever choose to ride with a permanent front tyre repair, nevermind a temporary one The temporary puncture repairs that the RAC do are only rated at 6mm max for a tyre rating up to J, and 3mm max for J to V rated tyres. The manager was called out and he showed me this information on his laptop. They are not listed as being suitable for tyres above V speed rating, the ZRX has a Z speed rating. Quote:
I wasn't impressed with their lack of knowledge of the repair kits limitations by speed rating of tyres as set by the manufacturers of the repair kit. Last edited by REXER; 20-04-09 at 01:50 AM. |
