Hi guys

I have an extremely slow puncher on the front tyre of my bike the hole is so tiny i think i was cause by rolling over a wire brush strand

My question is that the tyre has only done about 100 miles and it is still like new so can i get the puncher permanently repaired and not just a temporary repair? if i take my wheel off and take it to my local tyre centre

Thanks

Try replacing the valve core before you do anything else. These are often the cause of very slow leaks. Thumbs Up

Seen plenty of people do ok with a 'tyre slime' in this sort of situation.
