Hi, had the misfortune to get a puncture in the snow yesterday. Then, the valve broke on my replacement tube - talk about bad luck, or perhaps the cycling Gods were trying to send me a message.
Fortunately, I managed to repair the punctured tube (by no means a given) and got home. I think I'll carry 2 tubes with me from now on.
Anyway, in an effort to save some pennies, I was just wondering if anyone can recommend some DIY puncture repair patches?
I think I may have tried bits of an old inner tube in the past but not had much success - any thoughts? I also heard denim could be used but I'm not so sure...
