Review by juswannarideReviewed 1/23/2013by juswannarideCycling EnthusiastSacramento, CA4 of 5 customers found this review helpful.Ultra Compact, fits Anywhere. Everything you need, nothing you don't.EXACTLY the way I want it. Small, light and easy to stow. THE Minimalist Approach. Consider the price, then get at least three of them.

Review by AnonymousReviewed 12/26/2012by AnonymousCycling EnthusiastSeattle7 of 8 customers found this review helpful.Lousy patch kitI thought that coming from Park, this would be a good quality patch kit. It's not. First, the patches are mostly too big for 700x23 tubes. Limited small patches. Second, the plastic came off some of the patches before the foil did, meaning that I had to touch the edge of the rubber to get the foil off, which meant the patch didn't stick at the edge, which meant a waste of time and money. If you ride on 700x23 or smaller tires, do yourself a favor and buy Rema small kits.

Review by bluguitarmanReviewed 10/26/2012by bluguitarmanCycling EnthusiastCasper, WY 4 of 4 customers found this review helpful.The Park Tool VP-1 patch kit has the items you need for emergency tube repair. I carry this patch kit in my under the seat bag for emergency repairs year 'round. You never know when you'll encounter a flat and if you don't have a replacement tube with you, at least carry a decent patch kit. This one has the items you need. Good quality, compact, and reliable components. I actually have two of these little VP-1 kits and will replace them with the same if and when I need to. Happy cycling.

Review by BikesnBoardsReviewed 11/28/2022by BikesnBoardsCycling EnthusiastAkron, OHThese are great patchesFor those of us that still patch our tubes or use tubes at all, the glue patch is the only way to go. I do not have confidence in the glueless patch.

Review by GroutReviewed 1/24/2022by GroutCycling EnthusiastFloridaTransportable with the right size patch for a bike tube.Nicely packaged in a little box. Cement will dry out so buying a small quantity like this allows you to get a fresh supply from time to time. An add on purchase when doing a larger order saves shipping costs.

Review by ajwilkReviewed 9/7/2020by ajwilkCycling EnthusiastPortland, ORGreat addition to any workshop to fix flats and save tubes.I don't carry this on my bike, but it's a staple in my workshop. I fix punctured tubes from time to time, and the Park VP-1 patch kit is my go-to choice.

Review by AnonymousReviewed 12/4/2012by AnonymousCycling EnthusiastBoston2 of 4 customers found this review helpful.Price is right easy to useThese will take time to do it right, but will work. The one problem is that the patches are too wide for 700x23 or 700x25 tube and will need to be trimmed.
You may do better by vistiting a well known cycling pro-shop for better fitting patches. I found virtual duplictes of these patches but slightly smaller in size, which fit racing tubes much better.

Review by AnonymousReviewed 10/25/2012by AnonymousCycling EnthusiastBay Area2 of 2 customers found this review helpful.Life saver!These patch kits are a must! When I blow a tube, I usually put a new tube in and then patch when I get home. I have tubes with multiple patches & they are just as reliable as a brand new tube.
