Apart from not wanting some!I found it created more problems that it solved.

One man's meat. etc.
I've put it in four bikes' worth of tyres and had no problems whatever.
You must have been very unlucky.

Hi, Well i finally got around to putting the puncturesafe in i bought in the rear and front Tyre and i must say at first the rear Tyre felt as if i had a puncture or not enough air in :shock: , very strange and unnerving really but it soon leveled out and i found it a lot easier to ride, I didn't exactly what it said on the tin (bottle) so hopefully I'll have less to worry about when out and about.
It was like trying to ride a jelly down the road :lol:
Thx for all your suggestions and advice. icon_thumbs_up.gif

Now that's odd - in all the times I did try the useless gunges, it never felt any different to ride!

Hi, I've never used it ever and was unsure what to expect to be honest, but it honestly felt like a flat tyre would feel like, though not for very long i might add but it did smooth itself out. I then proceeded to do the five miles at 40mph without any issues.
Hopefully everything will be fine

I have noticed a little ditty for the first couple of miles at times when first doing it but once it spreads out its fine.

I would say my wobble was only a few hundred yards and then all was fine, perhaps i left the rear to long because i put some in the front after the rear and maybe it started to settle out.
Not really sure as I've never used it and didn't know what to expect.
