  1. I would patch it, or just plug it. I know how everybody says it's not safe, blah-blah but I never had an issue when I plugged my tire once (rear one only on the plug option). I rode it until it was past the wear bars and it never once leaked with that plug.

    Will patch in the am, thanks.

    Patch it. I've run on three patches before but then I am a ...................

    With less than three thousand miles, patch it BABY!! Thanks...

    Plug it!!!! I have done that a few times and put another 3k or more on the tire with no issues....

    If you do it right it wont leak.

    Or you can pull the tire off install a new one and send it to me and Ill plug it and finish wearing it out....lol :icon_twisted:

    Patch it is! I just can't imagine having someone else wearing it out for me and enjoying all my fun. :icon_naughty: Thanks

    The one time I had to do it, I had one of those kits from Walmart. It worked so well I now keep one in the van at all times. There is one that is specifically for bikes, but I can't remember what the name of it is. Nice little pouch with some CO2 cartridges and everything.

    Picking up a patch kit on the way into work (just in case)

  2. Noticed a small piece of metal inn the back tire today. Pulled the piece of metal and then did a soap test, bubble every second or so. Looking for recommendations , new tire or patch? Only two tires makes me ay buy a new one.and bite the bullet on this one. :-(

  3. I need to cut some metal lath and stucco. I'd like to do a neat job of it since it will show. Any idea how to do it?

    Also, I'd like some ideas on how to sand down some cement patching I did.

    Thanks.

    Depending on how much metal lath and stucco you have to cut the best thing is a universal metal/mason blade. Do not rush or it will start chunking the edge.

    With the cement patching you can pick up a concrete stone trowel that should work good enough.
