Ok i have a puncture in my rear tyre and it's lost 30psi since monday afternoon.

I plan to drag race at elvington but am unsure Confused

What do you think green gunk would sort it enough to use and if so is it really that hard to get a place to change my tyre after i've used it?

Ta, Smile

Hi

Don't know how much I trust it, but some people seem to.

Don't think you will have too many problems with the green gunk getting a tyre changed. It is the Finelec (sp) stuff that they don't like.

How old is the tyre?

All the best

Keith

gunk or ultraseal should do the job - ultraseal seems to be the best of the lot. I used gunk in my pushbike years ago and it didn't work, so i don't trust it much.

How did you manage a slow puncture in the side wall?

What a good way of scrubbing in new rubber - burnouts and drag races. Wink
