Hi guys I did a quick search, but couldn't find anything specific to my problem. I'm a roadie noob. I'm borrowing a road bike for 94.7. I've had four punctures in the last four rides. It's rather irritating. Can any roadie supply some tips/tricks of the trade so that I can actually finish rides? Normally, we mtb'ers have big, chunky, tubeless tyres filled with sealant, so punctures don't actually happen. I do have a puncture repair kit, as well as a spare tube riding along, but trying to wrench these wire-beaded Vredesteins off the rim, trying to find the blasted hole, patching it, and only then re-engage the wrestling match to get the tyre back on, while cars are whizzing past, is not exactly fun. My riding buddy (also actually a mtb'er) tried sealant in his. The sealant came out so fast with the high tyre pressure, that he got coated from shoes to helmet. There is also not enough air in the tube so that the sealant can do its job. This afternoon I'm training on my mtb again...
