[QUOTE="mr.hutch, post: 7613, member: 1424"] [b]Blowouts![/b] I've used "Ultraseal " in the tubeless tyres on my BMW for many years, also in the tubes on the outfit, without incident. ( fingers crossed) I've proved it works to my own satisfaction, re the BMW, as having removed ,"a foreign body", from the running surface of the rear tyre, with total loss of air, but on rotating the wheel to spread the compound fluid found , re the instructions, that the the leak seald, at 42 psi., which was still ok after some 4000 miles plus and still OK until the tyre was changed. The claim that "Ultraseal" seals punctures without you knowing it, is quite credible. Ok there are limits to the size of "objects" , but so far so good relative to the outfit's tubes. This is a far different product to that offered back in my professional motocyclying days up and down the A12 in the 80's, when I had several horrenous incidents with products that guranteed , "no punctures", OKO is a name that springs to mind, one of many, a total waste of of money, and seriously dangerious!, if it's still available. The trades description Act was not much in evidence then, but, hay ho! has anything changed. This has nothing to do with security bolts, obviously, I do'nt have that problem. Go carefully, mr.hutch :) P.S. Hope I don't go out and find a flat tyre in the morning! :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
