    i love em, I have had mine for 10 months now and they are still going strong.

    They seem to work for you or they don't. I swear by em despite the extra weight (would rather that then having to stop to change a tube), I will be using slime until I go tubeless somewhere in the distant future.

    I do know people that hate em though. My advise is if you pull a thorn out of the tyre spin it immediately to get it to seal, is you leave the wheel stationary slime can be sprayed all over the place.

    Do a search on fleabay because I got 2 for £6 :wink: ,I love them and have had slime fly out of a small nick in the tyre/tube and it still refused to go down !! At this price try them and if you dont like them throw them away
