Slashed tyre- emergency repair

Knew there was a reason I keep an extra Zip Vit gel in my saddle bag! Just a shame they taste like wallpaper paste!!

Oh and Zip Vit energy gel wrappers are perfect for the job

Or simply carry a section of an old tyre with the bead removed. That way, because you have it, you know you'll never need it.

Once used a Tesco Clubcard to repair sidewall damage!

nifty little trick!

*stupid comment time*

I've changed my inner tube, pumped up the tyre to high pressure and carried on using my outer tyre in the past. Surely you'd need to have a hell of a slash in the tyre for it to fail whilst pedalling home?

A fiver also does the trick. Though depends if the damage is pre or post coffee stop

Brilliant! Why did I not think of that!

Cool.

Those little 'get me home' tricks are useful.
