A must have for your seat bag period!
These work. It has delayed my transition to go tubeless which one day I will.
I would give them 5 stars but need to see how long it seals the puncture hole in the tube. So far, so good.
I'm eventually going tubeless, but until I do I will use these patches on my tubes. They're easy to install and sufficiently patch to extend the life of my tubes.
They may not be as durable as the vulcanized rubber with glue, but rare is it to have a puncture in the same place. My vote is for the Super Patch.
More often than not they seem to work. I have had a few give out over time or need to place a second over the edge of the first where it didnt seem to seal.
The small size cant be beat. They fit anywhere which is really nice when I can carry next to nothing on my bike.
Cannot beat the simplicity of these glue free patches on the road. I always have them with me and have zero failures with the patch. Nice to not be dealing with liquid glue; especially on a windy day!
I have never had great secession patching tubes. These glueless patches thus far actually work.
Had been dealing with the typical patch/glue method and experiencing a hit or miss as far as effectiveness until a fellow cyclist recommended this Park Tool GP-2 Glueless Super Patch. Again, have no regrets as these are easy to use, no mess, no fuss, and sealed up a hole without difficulty. Would certainly recommended these as they are easy to put in the bike sack to have in a pinch.
For most of us flats are an inevitable part of cycling and we only carry one spare tube. There have been a few occasions where I have needed this product and it did get me home. Not hard to use if you take your time and find the correct spot to apply the patch. Remember to carefully inspect the tire internally and externally or you start all over again very shortly. Make sure to use the sandpaper that is included so the patch will adhere better. All of this takes patience and time . Hopefully along with this kit you brought both!
I loved these patches till last week when for no apparent reason and no warning, one just let go over night. I came out to go to work and discovered I was going to be late. Again, the tire was perfect pressure coming home the evening before, I had no indication of failure. Mind you it held fine for a year or more, but I hate this kind of surprise. Back to patch and glue for me, can't be late to work.
I still prefer the old school patches. These seem to leak after some time. Been using glue patches for years. Ttryed these because of the positive reviews. They work ok. But stick with the old patch.
No More Mess. This kit is super easy to use, clean, apply, done. Makes fixing patches a non painful event.
After trying four times in 100 degree heat to patch a buddy's tire with traditional patches, I decided never again. After switching to these my time off the bike repairing a flat has dropped, and my time in the saddle increased. What more could you ask for?
If you are not using these, consider moving into the 21st century.
I haven't used glue patches in years. These work really well. I clean the tube and scruff it slightly w sandpaper given and place one side the smear it out well from the center to edges.. racing on a 6 mo old patch today
Punctures happen for those of us who still use tires with tubes. These patches work. They don't come undone after a few miles or a few days etc.. And, no more tubes of glue that don't have any glue in them! Bonus.
Works well. Like the size too.
I keep these in my saddle bag for use in the rare instance I experience more than 1 flat on a ride (I carry 1 spare tube, plus these instant patches). Provides great peace of mind knowing I am self sufficient and can always get home.
I've had great results with these patches. The kit is light and small. The patches work and are fast and easy to apply.
Perfect for that flat when the spare tube has been used. Fast and dependable!
The park patch really works will . It's more like quick fix ,but work better with glue helps better for longer ride !!!
