MudLark Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 I had the misfortune to slash a pretty new R800 tubeless MTB tyre on some glass today, resulting in a cut about an inch wide across the tread. I'm wondering if its possible to repair it with a gaiter (maybe even one of the types used on cars) or whether its pretty much chuck it and move on?

Butterbean Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 I've sown and then put a normal tube patch on with great success.

Maybe follow the stitching with a glued rubber patch on the inside
