mooky Posted May 14, 2012 Share I did some oooogling.. but didnt really find anything useful! Hopefully my faithful hubbers can assist here... I have 2 tiny little holes in my new fancy louis garneau cycling pant (if you've seen the picture (somewhere on the hub) of the mtb fall I had where my chainring manhandled my ass, you'll know what its from)... Anyway... so how do I fix this? Is it as simple as just stitching it up? Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/116257-hole-in-fancy-pant/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron Posted May 14, 2012 Share We need a pic of the hole , preferably with you in the pant this we can give the best advice . only kidding , if it's a small hole it can be stitched otherwise a patch , but as said it will not look too good . paulk 1 Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/116257-hole-in-fancy-pant/#findComment-1657540 Share on other sites More sharing options...

cowboylegs Posted May 14, 2012 Share I've got your solution. I bought a nice pair of bibs and promptly got about a 5mm round hole in them when they hung up on something in the garage. So, take a sacrificial t-shirt that is about the same color as what you're fixing and cut a piece out of it that is the size of the hole plus about 50% for a patch. On the inside of the lycra clothing, put the patch over the hole and then apply Goop glue over the entire thing. You'll should end up with a 'Goop' patch about twice the size of the original hole and 50% bigger than the patch. Let it dry for a day or 2 and then wear/wash as usual. The ugly part is on the inside and you have to look very close to see anything unusual. mooky 1 Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/116257-hole-in-fancy-pant/#findComment-1657550 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TNT1 Posted May 14, 2012 Share Turn them inside out, sew the holes such. Simple. Just make sure you use a lycra needle in your machine. When you turn them the right side out, you'll hardly notice anything.

MtbBarbie Posted May 14, 2012 Share I had the same problem Mooky, can't remember how I got the hole though! Still haven't fixed it but I'm going to pretend it's because is shows I mean business and has nothing to do with my laziness!
