  • Yea, to bad this is the worst possible idea ever. Don't be cheap, actually get your tire repaired properly. I am certified by Michelin Tire, and this is not an authorized tire repair procedure. Not to mention this is NOT reliable nor safe. There is much more you need to do to properly plug and patch a hole in a tire.

  • @InSorteDiaboIi For a couple years I would immediately replace my tire after a puncture. But as the number of punctures grew (4 in 3 months at one point) I couldn't justify buying a new tire each time. This solution has worked for me. Perhaps I'm just lucky that it hasn't failed, but a lot of other people have the same story as mine it seems.

  • So this is different from a standard plug kit as it has a mushroom seal inside the tire? If thats the case it would be much safer. I have used the standard types that you use for cars and never had a problem with the plug. That nail looked pretty thick though. I would want the mushroom seal for that tire. Where did you buy it?

  • Right, I think I ordered it from Stop and Go's site. Go google it.

  • That's pretty useful. What about the glue and N2 or CO2 inflator gadget? Are those included?

  • I have a portable tire pump that hooks up to my battery to fill up the tire. I have heard mixed reviews about the CO2 cartriges

  • We used plug inserts to repair big rig tires and they are better that a patch which is what the "certified" tire guys want you to come to them for. Plus this is for emergency tire repair which is great. Most plugs use a glue as well and we have used this kind with the glue on them for permanent repair.

  • I've done similar with my dad on his Harley but using a "standard" kit. Very good video and the tools are great to have with you in case you have a flat in a bad spot. I always of course recommend getting a new tire ASAP afterward since a plugged tire on a bike is more dangerous than one on a car (even though I've gone 2K+ miles on a plugged car tire). Better safe than sorry!

  • I only use three tools for plugging my commercial lawn tractor. Pliers...reamer and the hook for pushing in the plug.

  • @jholleyjr2 - No shit it's plugging, I know this. The proper way to repair a tire, is patching it. More specifically, a plug/patch combo. Sams Club does sell tires, and is backed by several main brands, Michelin, Goodyear, and Bridgestone. as such, seems you need to learn a few more things before coming at someone who is certified. These cheap, half ass, and not to mention Non DOT Approved methods , are unsafe. Give it up, you're a cheapskate, and think that's the best way to be. You're wrong.

  • @InSorteDiaboIi This is not patching a tire, this is plugging you dumb ass. You didnt work anywhere cause obviously you dont know shit about tires. Those damn tire places are rip offs, sams club is not a tire place. You are a joke. Its not about being cheap its about not being able to afford being over charged for tires.

  • @InSorteDiaboIi - Guest*

  • @jholleyjr2 - Clearly you don't understand things. There are proper ways to patch a tire, then there are improper ways, and ways that are against DOT safety standards. This way, is both. Places like Sams Club, offer free Flat Repair, so how is that over charging? And they are all certified by Michelin Tires. (I used to work there myself, as well as a few Goodyear stores) But if you want to be a cheap ass and put your own safety at risk, be my guess.

  • @InSorteDiaboIi DUDE they do the same thing at the tire places. All those tire places are just ripingg people off, overcharging people for stuff they can do themselves.

  • Great instructions! Thank u so much!!!

  • @textcrwds - LMAO You're a fucking idiot. I do choose for myself. I've always chosen Michelin, well before I got certified by them. Brainwashing? Propaganda? Get off the drugs.

  • @InSorteDiaboIi Of course you would be selling propaganda since you have been brainwashed by Michelin tire to not think and choose by yourself.

  • @InSorteDiaboIi well I agree with your statement the only issue for me

    is no bike shop here will repair a bike tire, I know I got a nail 'small one"

    in a tire that was on for 3 hrs, nobody would repair it. I got the kit but I use it mainly as away to get my bike home then

    I can remove the tire and get it replaced, since no one will fix it

    at least not here in the Edmonton area
