For the last couple of years, I've been replacing my tubes with brand new ones cos Continental Race 28 tubes are dirt cheap, about £2 each. However, I never threw them away so I have a massive collection of between 20 and 30 tubes that can be repaired and reused.
I'm trying to find a big puncture repair kit, with lots of patches and glue, for a reasonable price and of reasonable quality. Any suggestions?
Many thanks.

    get two rema tiptop tt04 kits, also get three packs of tt04 patches (8 per pack)

    that'll give you enough patches and vulcanising fluid to clear the backlog and still have enough left over for a kit and patches to carry

    tbh if you've had that many punctures in two years i'd be trying to figure out what is behind the puncture rate - dodgy tyres, low pressure, riding in/near gutter, for instance, or is it simply that you are having to ride on glass/debris strewn roads?
