Glueless Tire Patches
I've used them for 5 years, Park brand and private labeled for LBSs to sell. Used on mtn bikes and road bikes. No failures. They last as long as the tube does. My kid had a failure because he didn't do a good job. I redid it and it held fine. No one seems to like them but my own experience has been overwhelmingly positive. |

Waterproof sticking plaster. Like Elastoplast. Or other flexy sticky tape. |

Jobst Brandt I'm sharing my own experiences. I use the glueless and I ride on it. I've put well over a thousand miles on a patched tube without any problems whatsoever. Use the ****ing glue if it makes you happy. |

Best luck I've had with them is ten miles (16 KM).
