I've got a bunch of patch kits that contain yellow "Propatch" cement

inside an extra plastic wrap and all, didn't help. So we had
to use my spare tube.

Do you guys know a brand that is better and where a bunch of
these little tubes could be bought sans patches? Not so much
for me but for other riders because many reported similar
problems.

Rema were always the patch of choice. However, any vulcanizing
fluid should do it.

I've had really good luck with the Rema tubes. I don't recall
ever opening a previously unopened tube to find it dry. Some of
them have probably sat in saddle packs for multiple years, too.


Ok, thanks, guys, then I'll try Rema cement next time.
