I am riding my mercian with Tufo tubulars and Tufo tape

After ten months of riding I finally got a puncture

Does anyone know if when I replace the tyre I also have to replace the tape

Or can I keep on using it?

Incidently the latex filler worked very well I never noticed I had a flat

Until the day after I got home

Yes, 100% change the tape every time you change the tyre. Question, if the latex sealant was working, why change the tyre?

Can't you use more sealant?

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
