I havent tried yet.
The front tub would currently make a good spare. Has a decent amount of wear. But still very much usable. The rear, annoyingly, Looks pretty good despite me skidding all over Gran Canaria on it, and despite it being a pitstop repaired hand-me-Down.
The reason this is annoying. Is that I simply cant wait any longer to put my FMBs on. They trolling me from the washroom wall everyday.

I've always used Mastik One for carbon fibre rims, and the normal Conti orange tin for alloy rims, been tres bon.
SF - how did you get on with your tub folding?
I glue mine, let the glue dry, then stretch the tub out with the valve at one end, make a small fold at each end so the tub is base-tape up, as it were, then you fold it over and over so the glued side doesn't contact itself.
Last time I had a flat (I was out with Howard) I managed to change the tyre in the same sort of time as I would a clincher.
