Zitat von Boxerboy im Beitrag #2Zitat von Mr. 36654 im Beitrag #1 I've never been a morning person, so it's far too early for me to compose an amusing email full of double entendres about insertions, however... A year or so ago, I was invited on a ride-out with Mr Bravo and a few of his friends. When I arrived at the designated meeting point, my tyre pressure monitor was telling me my rear tyre was very low pressure. Off to the petrol station to use their compressor, only to find I'd picked up a screw/nail/whatever at it was embedded in my rear tyre. I thought the day was going to be a washout, spent getting a replacement rear, but no; Mr Bravo to the rescue. He had with him (in his handy-dandy rain-repellant tank bag) a Dynoplug kit and mini compressor. Nail removed, plug inserted, tyre inflated, and spent the rest of the day on a very enjoyable ride-out. I was sceptical at first about how the quick repair was going to hold, but soon forgot about it, and enjoyed a blisteringly fast ride round some excellent roads (the details of which are unimportant). This was Mr Bravo's weapon of choice: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00UQPUZUE/ Suffice to say, I have since acquired the same, and it is now a permanent fixture in my top box (along with the mini compressor I already owned). Cheers Paul B. |

Zitat von Paul B im Beitrag #4 Don't you get an unbalance or vibrations from the brass tip, which is left inside the tire after the repair? |

I am a fan of the Dynaplug system, too. It works well and is easy to insert into the tire. But take it from me, do not use it in conjunction with Slime. I had a flat on the road and installed a bottle of Slime in my tire to get me home, where I used a Dynaplug plug to plug (too many "plugs"?) the hole. About 500 miles later the Slime apparently lubricated the plug enough so that it spit it out and then didn't seal the tire, so my tire went flat again. After that, I cleaned out the hole with alcohol , reamed it out and tried out a Stop and Go plug. That has been holding up well for the past few weeks.

Zitat von Gaucho im Beitrag #9Zitat von Paul B im Beitrag #4 it's not a solid cap like on a 9mm round but a hollow shell with the rubbery slug inserted. Weighs fuck all |
