My 1st puncture
Re: My 1st puncture
User error.
They work well if used properly. Here's a snake-biten tubeless repair fixed with that kit.
Stop and Go are also good: easier to apply, but bulkier to carry, and only good for small holes.

Re: My 1st puncture
There's still a slight air leak so I took it in for a puncture repair. The guy wouldn't do it because it had "Already been repaired once" & would be "Unsafe".
Brand new PR4 with a few hundred miles on it.
If this was a car tyre they'd simply have put a vulvanised patch on the inside to stop air escaping.

In your opening post you described the damage as a glass cut.vRSG60 wrote: ↑Wed Sep 20, 2017 8:04 am There's still a slight air leak so I took it in for a puncture repair. The guy wouldn't do it because it had "Already been repaired once" & would be "Unsafe".

As a tyre pro I would only advise a replacement tyre.
We, the tyre trade, can only repair a hole safely, never a cut.
Cut tyres can be sent to specialists for repair, but not motorcycle tyres.
Nothing to stop you removing the tyre and applying your own patch of course.

Re: My 1st puncture
Just to clarify, the puncture it was a piece of glass around 2mm x 2.5mm, rectangular in shape about 4mm long. Length ways into the tyre.
The damage to the tyre is no worse than the damage caused by the reaming out,

Re: My 1st puncture
Buy a vulcanising patch off ebay and do it yourself?
Or, put a bit of "Stan's" in there. Seals up small holes a treat.
