Review by AnonymousReviewed 5/12/2017by AnonymousDaily CommuterOrlando, Florida0 of 1 customers found this review helpful.The patches are OK.I have had these fail, especially when I put them on and immediately pump up my tires and try to go. If I put on the patch and leave the tube for some hours they work much better. They do work better than some other brand instant patches.

Review by Dancelli013Reviewed 4/27/2017by Dancelli013Cycling EnthusiastLancaster, PA3 of 3 customers found this review helpful.Great for small puncturesThis is my primary fix for on the road flats. Works well and fairly easy to apply. I have run a tube patched with one of these for over 1,000miles.

Review by AnonymousReviewed 9/27/2013by AnonymousCycling EnthusiastMinneapolis, MN1 of 2 customers found this review helpful.Great product!I can't believe that I was still using the old patch-and-glue repair kits when these kits cost so little. I'll never go back, this kit has saved me on the trail a couple of times now.

Review by billReviewed 8/29/2013by billCycling Enthusiastst petersburg, FL1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.been working great for yearsVery compact. Easy to apply. I've been using these for years and they usually hold up for almost a year, at that point the glue breaks down and it begins to leak again. By the time a 4th leak is repaired, the 1st will break down.

Review by AnonymousReviewed 6/13/2013by AnonymousCycling EnthusiastFrisco, TX2 of 3 customers found this review helpful.You must carry patches when you rideHey a patch set is super cheap compared to replacing tubes for ten bucks whenever you get a flat from a nail or thorn or glass or whatever.
I like the fact you don't have to carry a glue tube with these.
I've been riding a patched tube in a 25mm tire now at 100-110 psi for about 2 months now and have had no problems at all.
Everyone should have a patch kit!

Review by Marker5280Reviewed 6/13/2013by Marker5280Cycling EnthusiastColorado Front Range1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.Effective and easy to use and carry!Carried the small patch kit with glue tube for the longest time. Even though many times the glue in the tube had evaporated away. Had bought some of thes patches for 'just in case'. Well, just in case did come on a long ride, and these patches performed great! Easy to prep tire and apply. No issues with patch peeling off or not sticking. I'm a convert! I've ditched my old patch kits, and have gone solely to these. Smaller and lighter in your repair kit, and they do what they're supposed to. What's not to like?

Review by thandokoReviewed 11/6/2012by thandokoCasual CyclistSan Francisco, CA3 of 3 customers found this review helpful.Soo easy to use and effectiveCompact, light, easy to use, and it works! You shouldn't leave home without it.
I've never used the glue but I'd imagine it'd be more cumbersome. This is a great patch that'll get you back on the road in no time.

Review by frozeReviewed 6/29/2012by frozeCycling Enthusiastfort Wayne, IN5 of 5 customers found this review helpful.Simply the bestEveryone here reviewing these patches love them, and so do I. These patches you either love them or hate them, the haters simply do not know how to use them. I've been using them for about 20 years and never once had one fail except on latex, they will not work on latex tubes. Like a reviewer said they work as a permanent patch, I've rolled on tubes with as many as 13 glueless patches, and some of those patches were 5 years old. I don't buy a new tube just because it has a patch, that's a waste of perfectly good tube, I just keep patching the tube until the tube is shot from either near decay, or the valve has some sort of issue, or I had to put a patch on top another due to a second strike in the same area which is rare.
The advantage to these patches is the ability to just buff the tube with the included buffer an area slightly larger then the patch will cover, then forget the step of gluing and waiting for it to set up which could take a couple of minutes, press the patch on hard for about 20 seconds and re-install the tube, and your good to go in less time then glue on patches.
These patches are also very thin and light, you won't feel the patch on the tube while riding.

Review by AnonymousReviewed 3/19/2012by Anonymous4 of 4 customers found this review helpful.Works surprisingly wellThese work surprisingly well, out of 3 uses (on 3 different bikes - 2 road, one mountain), all have been good repairs with no significant air loss afterwards. I figured they'd be good for a temporary repair and that I've have to replace the tube later, but I found that the repair was permanent and I'm still riding on the repaired tubes.

The patches work great for getting you home, when I always put in a new tube. I'm not sure how well they work long-term.

Review by AnonymousReviewed 9/9/2010by AnonymousCasual Cyclist15 of 16 customers found this review helpful.A Must Have for the CommuterFor years I rode my Gary Fisher Wahoo everywhere I went. I'm convinced there is no such thing as a convenient time to get a flat tire. With these patches in my pack, I am able to get back on the road, including pumping and everything, within literally 5 minutes of the tire going flat. For the price and convenience, it can't be beat. If applied correctly, it will last virtually forever as a permanent fix. I've only ever had one patch fail.

Review by Lotek7Reviewed 6/26/2020by Lotek7Cycling EnthusiastBear Delaware2 of 2 customers found this review helpful.Cheap Insurance.For most of us flats are an inevitable part of cycling and we only carry one spare tube. There have been a few occasions where I have needed this product and it did get me home. Not hard to use if you take your time and find the correct spot to apply the patch. Remember to carefully inspect the tire internally and externally or you start all over again very shortly. Make sure to use the sandpaper that is included so the patch will adhere better. All of this takes patience and time . Hopefully along with this kit you brought both!

Review by UTcyclistReviewed 5/17/2019by UTcyclistCycling EnthusiastOgden, UTGreat instant patches to keep in your saddle bag.I keep these in my saddle bag for use in the rare instance I experience more than 1 flat on a ride (I carry 1 spare tube, plus these instant patches). Provides great peace of mind knowing I am self sufficient and can always get home.
