Review on πŸ”§ Optimized Park Tool GP-2 Puncture Repair Kits - Pre-Glued Super Patch (Pack of 5) by Hector Liamsi

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good quick patch for small punctures.

I wear both these (for small holes) and standard sets for patches with glue (for large holes). They are great because the glue doesn't dry before first use and most of my punctures are small. The trick with these patches is to inflate the tube just enough to shape it before applying it. Thus, the patch will not be weakened if the tube is stretched when inflated into the tire. These patches don't seem to stretch as much as rubber inner tubes and I've had several instances where they came loose after inflation when applied to fully deflated mountain bike inner tubes. I've never had any problems with road bike tubes.

Pros
  • A lot of positive emotions
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
