Slime 10003 Bike Tube Puncture Repair Sealant, Prevent and Repair, Suitable for All Bicycles, Non-Toxic, Eco-Friendly, 8oz Bottle

figured out how to remove the stem from a presta, slime it up, then feel around and get the stem back in place. had a leak that the slime glueless patches wouldnt stay on very well or very long. could i just replace the tube? of course, but i believe in getting the full use out of it first. been a week riding with the slime in the tube, had to refill the air after the first fill and a bit of riding around the block, but its held air for a week now. in the words of the great Todd, very impressive!

It saved me when I was in a tight bind. It didn't take long to fix the flat and I was back to riding again within minutes without any more flats. With how big my tires are, I had to use half the bottle (4 oz.) to fix the flat like it said on the back. The Slime brand has never let me down and I highly recommend it all bicyclists.

Good

Via Lectric Ebike XP 3.0: I was initially impressed with this when I had the misfortune of running over a motor vehicle's leftover metal tire valve, after an accident hadn't been well cleaned, at night. After I managed to safely get off the road and assured myself my bike hadn't come apart (the clanging as it flipped up into the back tire rim / engine / brake rotor sounded like something had critically failed!) I followed the trail of slime back up the road (the slime had to work hard to fill that gap) to find whatever I'd run over. I suspect this gave it time for the seal to dry and strengthen, as I still had enough air left in the tire to make it the 2 miles remaining home and the seal held, despite it being 85ºF in an Arizona night. The puncture in the tire was sizeable, but I decided to put this stuff to the test. (Also, I couldn't afford a new tire / tube / etc at the time). I refilled the tire air the next day, figuring the extra hours of setting overnight wouldn't hurt. I filled it up to 35PSI. But to my surprise, it continued to hold the seal! .... At least for maybe a month. Which, hey, that gave me time to acquire the things I needed to do the replacement! Then the seal randomly gave in the middle of the day without any warning or notable cause. I tried to reinflate it to get it home, but alas, to no avail. After being rescued and going through the new install process of all the things, I suspect the anti-puncture strip that was definitely punctured got grumpy and shoved itself into the seal, which didn't manage to reseal itself again. C'est la vie. All in all, I definitely can't complain. It saved me from being stuck in a gravel pull off in a low visibility section of a busy road at night and gave me enough time to get the replacement things. 100% worth the money. Super easy installation.

I keep this in the basket of my electric trike as part of my emergency supplies. I ride far enough from home that getting a flat could turn into a real headache, so having something like this with me gives me a little extra peace of mind. Thankfully, I haven’t had to use it yet, which is obviously a good thing, but I like knowing I have another option with me if I end up with a small puncture while I’m out riding. The bottle is compact enough that it doesn’t take up much room in my basket, and it stays right there with my other emergency items. Hopefully I never need it, but I’d much rather have it with me than wish I had it when I’m miles from home.

I added this sealant to both tubes on my 27.5-inch electric bicycle. My tires were already heavily worn, and the rear tube ended up getting several new punctures. The sealant successfully sealed them and allowed the tube to continue holding pressure. I could clearly see the green sealant coming through the punctures and closing the holes. In my experience, it can confidently handle around five punctures, and possibly even six. Once the tube reaches seven or eight punctures, however, that is probably the practical limit, and it is time to replace the tube. Apparently, I am unusually unlucky when it comes to getting bicycle punctures, but this product saved me from immediately having to remove the heavy rear motor wheel every single time. The pressure initially dropped slightly while the sealant formed a plug, but then it stabilized. Installation was straightforward once I removed the Schrader valve core. This is not a substitute for replacing a badly worn tire or a severely damaged tube, but for small punctures caused by glass, wire, thorns, or other road debris, it works extremely well. 5/5 it genuinely works and saved me a lot of time and frustration.

EDIT: so I had to read the instructions online because what's on the bottle is useless. For an 8-oz bottle it does not have enough space to have directions with a picture that mean anything. When I found them online I learned something new. I didn't know that a basic tube for a bicycle had a valve core. In the 30 some odd years that I have been fixing bikes I have never known this. It would be nice if this was emphasized on the packaging rather than showing a generic twist and turn with a couple of arrows that pretty much don't show what you're taking out of the tire. It would have saved me a whole lot of trouble. Upped the review to five stars because it literally does work almost instantly and I had no trouble getting home after only a few minutes of spinning the tire and letting it sit. Really is quite an awesome formula and I don't know why I didn't know about this earlier. Completely useless. Unless I'm missing something and they're supposed to be more to the so-called "tool"other than it being just a cap, then it is useless. For one if it's supposed to be a tool then why is it sealed off at one end? How is the slime supposed to pass through? Can't just use the tube because there's no pressure on the valve to let air through. And if these are made for only valve stem tubes, it should be specifically listed on the product description and on the bottle. Now that I actually need to use it I can't. So I have to walk a mile and a half with my bike in hand, all the way to my job. Thank you for probably being one of the most undependable pieces of equipment I have bought for my bike. I am genuinely ticked off.

Does NOT work! I don't know how there are so many reviews saying this stuff works. I had both a slime tire installed on my e-bike and pour the entire bottle into the valve stem, put it back in and filled up the tire, then rotated the tire as they say and yet the tire went flat. I had two CO2 canisters in my small manual pump as well as mini electric pump which I ran the battery completely empty and the tires still went flat. When I guided home after having my daughter pick me up in her car, took the tire off and there was simply a little pinhole that was facing the rim itself. I felt nothing sharp or pointy whatsoever that this should have occurred yet even with a little tiny pinhole the slime was just coming out. It wasn't thick at all and it did absolutely nothing and I was about 8 mi away from my house when it failed for no inexplicable reason. Even with the entire six ounce canister poured in it did NOTHING. But sure if I'm doing something wrong but I followed the directions and again, this was a slime tire that ALREADY Had slime in it but still it wouldn't even seal up a PINHOLE leak, so I don't know how everyone here is saying this stuff works so great. This is my third time trying it and it's NEVER worked as advertised so I'm done with it.

Mann kan nicht schlecht sagen.

Ni ha sido un pinchazo provocado por un objeto punzante, ni tampoco un reventón por otras causas. Se ha desinflado la rueda de isofacto en medio del campo sin poder pedir ayuda o asistencia a nadie. he puesto el producto y he echo girar la rueda en vacío ( sin aire ) varios minutos, el producto se ha esparcido por toda la cámara, he puesto un poco de aire para dar presión y rodar la rueda andando un buen rato, he terminado de inflar a mano y he salido del apuro en pocos minutos. Pasados unos días y por capricho de ver que es lo ocurrido, he desmontado la rueda y sacado la cámara. He visto que una de las juntas de las muchas tiras que forman las cámaras, se ha despegado 3 mm. ( una rajita ), buscado el objeto punzante, observado la cubierta y tampoco hay nada. Conclusión, ha sido defecto de la cámara. Al hacer girar la rueda, el líquido ha salido con la primera presión por la raja, se ha esparcido entre cámara y cubierta y al dar mas presión, se han pegado entre ellas no dejando salir el aire. Por supuesto, de paso he cambiado la cámara por una nueva. Este producto es para ponerlo dentro de la rueda antes de pinchar, no lo hice así, al ser una bici eléctrica nueva en garantía y no quería manipularla. Ahora la cámara nueva lleva el producto dentro para cuando suceda de nuevo, al salir tape el solo el agujero. Lo recomiendo al 100%, es mejor que quedarse tirado.

Happy

Le flacon fait 237cl et il faut 118cl par roue de la M365, donc il est facile d'envoyer 1 moitié de slime dans chaque pneu. Une clé de retrait de valve et 1 tuyau d'injection sont fournis, facilitant et simplifiant l'opération. Parfait !
