Spare tyre or no spare tyre?

170 grams for a bit of insurance.

I didn't take one on TCR but the population density is much higher so there was unlikely to be 100i hike to the next town.

Spare tyre

Too easy.

Park Tool tyre boots are about the size of a credit card. Probably too late to pick a couple up though.

Considering your overall pack weight, 170g doesn't represent much and a fucked tyre could end your race out in the sticks.

I have a Park tyre boot and I carry heavy duty tape too.
