provenrad I don't use them myself, but in the context that the dude-in-distress had never patched a tube before and I was trying to get him home as easily as possible I thought pre-glued would be faster and easier.
LOL Dude-in-distress, i did know how to repair a tube but i wanted to know if it was best to replace or repair the tube, i just have not done it on a 700x23 tube before, and i thought it would affect the ride.
edmundane [quote]provenrad 12. making inner tube patches
any good instructions on how to do this? i tried but never got it to work...[/quote]
Chop a circle or what ever shape you wand out of the old tube. roughen up the side of the old tube that is on the outside (Not the chalky side) and apply alot of glue, more than usual but wait till the glue is touch dry before sticking it
