Park ToolVP-1 Vulcanizing Patch Kit(Return to Product Page)

Just to keep around for when your spare tube also flats. In that case I use this patchkit. But be aware the fluid tends to dry out after some. You never know when so I just replaces the whole kit once a year.

Great patch kit. Easy to use and holds forever!

Patched tubes are a necessity in Portland as the roads consistently have glass, staples, wire from auto tires and a variety of other things to cause a flat.

This patch kit works perfectly!

Finally an integrated air containment solution everyone in the whole family can agree upon. Crisp, aerodynamic and responsive, the VP-1 has all the patching power where you need it without any of the fuss.

Easy to pack

Its a patch kit! Stops the leak and on you ride. Easy to use and I like much better than those goofy sticky clear patches that are out there. This works!

It's a patch kit ...

what can I say??

Their delicious.

If I get a flat that can be fixed, I'll pop in a new one on the ride and use this kit to repair and reuse the tube. works great.

The glued patches hold better than the ones that are pre glued.

Sucks when you need them but worse when you don't have 'em. These have saved me on more than a few rides.

Have used once, worked fine

Not much to say. It does the trick.

I have several of these and use them when needed. Easy to use, and they work.

Nice to have if I get a flat tire out on the road!

I don't carry this on my bike, but it's a staple in my workshop. I fix punctured tubes from time to time, and the Park VP-1 patch kit is my go-to choice.

Glue, patches, sandpaper in the most compact kit I've found. I run through one of these a year commuting 22mi/day all year round in PDX. Good quality glue and patches. Thanks to the small box I can fit the patch kit, spare tube, two irons, 10 bucks, my cell phone, C02, and a pair of nitrile gloves in my 30 cube inch seat bag no sweat (ok - a little sweat).

Use to patch tubes when needed.

I rarely use this patch kit because I don't get a lot of flats but it always works when I help someone stranded on the roadside who doesn't have a spare tube. On the few tubes of my own that I have patched, if I get a leak it isn't at the patch. Not much more that you could ask for.

Planned to ride for 100 miles preparing for an Ironman,got a flat tire twice,I used the vulcanizing patch and was back on the road in a few minutes.

nothing special, repairs tubes as you would expect it too
