I have recently gone tubeless and I am still learning.

This morning I got a cut in the tyre at least 10mm. Its huge. I boshed in two dyna mega plugs and one mini plug and it came nowhere near sealing it. As soon as I hit it with the CO2 the sealant just pi$$ed out again and didnt seal.

Question: is the tyre fubar?

If not, what next? Is there anyway to repair a hole that big?

Please help?

    I'd use a pump, not Co2 as it's less likely to force out the sealant as you described.

    Thanks for the advice.
    @ Joe - You're probably right. I tried that after the CO2. No joy.
    @ Oxo - Thanks, I didnt know you could repiar the tyre like a tube. I will pick one up at lunch and give it a go at home tonight. Can't bear to face the mess again today.
