N.Wood Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Or cut patch from old tyre / tube and glue on inside. Basically anything along the lines of all the ideas on this page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clerictgm mk2 Posted July 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 (edited) What about gluing both sides with patches from old tubes and then sew it all together to be extra sure? Edited July 29, 2014 by Clerictgm mk2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Yes, why not. Try it and see, no right or wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuFiK Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 I had same issue. Use some used tube, put quick glue, and thats all Enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dngr2self Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Id square it off and use a piece of old tyre to patch it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clerictgm mk2 Posted July 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Throw it in the bin and buy a new tyre. Why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiamWood! Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 As above, it's not worth repairing at all, just buy a new tyre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clerictgm mk2 Posted July 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Spending 20 minutes to fix is not worth it? I rode this tire patched by chineese tube patch for 3 hours today and nothing wrong happened except of a little 4mm hernia, but this is because of chineese patch that are too elastic and soft. So ordering new tire, waiting for week or more till it delivered is better? In addition to fact this tire is almost new condition that makes decision of throwing it in the bin pretty irrational.

craigjames Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 It bugs me how you refer anything thats shit as being chinese Ironic when you consider the quality of some of the things that have come out of Russia... Nothing to do with the pad being of Asian origin, more you using it for a purpose that it wasn't intended for! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamWood! Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Why bother making this thread then if you have already been riding on it after you did a piss poor repair? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vivian-Trial Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Would you do it to a car tyre though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamKidney Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Would you do it to a car tyre though? You can't compare the two in this instance. A bike tyre in this application would be fine. A car tyre would be useless with similar damage given the huge differences in load and requirement it's given compared to a bicycle. Small puncture repairs on car tyres are common though. I also agree. I can't think of many good things to come from Russia, Clerigtm being one of the worst I've personally had the misfortune to encounter/put up with on here.

Jamie_Trials Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Honestly you can do anything you want with it mate. Pop your penis in it. Wee in it and spin the tyre round. Use it as a hula hoop Replace it with a lifesaver. Colour it in and pretend it's a doughnut. Wrap it in clingflim and use it to boost radio signal. Hide it up a tree and see how long it stays there for. The possibility are endless. Hope that helps, but if you do have any more problems, don't hesitate to ask. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
