Thinking of using Stans or similar as I am fed up with punctures. Does the latex stuff really work that well or is it hyped up?

    It works, up to a point. Get a thorn, and it will most likely be sealed. Get the tyre sliced by a rock, and you're in trouble whatever you have in your tyres.

    Nothing can stop you indefinitly getting a puncture, however you have a much less chance using one of the kits.
  • I only ever get thorn and small sharp flint punctures so I will give it a go. Cheers.
