Depends on the flat. There are times a stick is causing 5+ plugs to be put in a single hole. Fix a flat isn’t going to hold air on something like that. Not sure how it would help in the classic pinch flat situation. A plug kit (with inflation method) though would be overall better insurance than fix a flat IMHO.
Maybe if you had an extremely slow leak from a thorn or something, but I have not ever seen an offroad tire incident that Fix-a-flat would resolve. A good tire plug kit would be far more useful. Most of the time you are dealing with sidewall gashes and pinch flats.
That’s more or less my thought also. I normally ride wit a friend and so I don’t worry about it. I was just curious if it was worth messing with. Thanks for the feedback.
Used tire slime once, makes a nasty mess if it's in when setting a bead. Also, never had much luck with it.
I have in addition to my spare that I carry at all times:
I could see where a can of fix a flat might come in handy in a case like that. You could stuff the entire can in that hole…..lol
Remind me never to go riding with you!!! 😂
I would have to say you are very well equipped! I think I might have to look into a set of solid rubber tires like I had on my radio flyer wagon when I was a kid….lol
Looks like your getting ready to run the BAHA!
I can’t agree more! Anytime I go out to fix something I grab about 10 different size wrenches and it never fails, the size I need is still hanging on the wall in the shop 🤬
Do they sell them in a set? 🤣
It looks to me that the only safe place to ride is on paved roads!
That spike beat the inside of that rim up pretty good. I thought my axle was popping lol. Good thing it was slow speed or it would've knocked a hole in the wheel for sure.
Only you could have pulled that off!
