Four flat tires in the last five rides Help needed. I have a 26x1.95 tire with a tube. Any suggestions or help ?
ah ya they will all cause flats.. Also on some 26x1.95 tires it can sometimes be a little tricky getting the bead to seat right and can end up with a pinch flat from the tube and the rim or if the bead comes off the rim. so if you patch them be sure to check around both sides all the way around to make sure the tire is one and seated right before fully inflating then check it again. tho the flat out should help you not get any more flats or at least will keep you from ever getting stranded but it might be a good idea if you dont have one to also have a small pump with you in case you lose air before the flat out fully seals the hole. and if you ride in an area with a lot of throns glass or nails it might not hurt to also out in some sort of tire liner to help not get punctures in your tire and tube. in addition to the flatout.I have found glass, a small nail, a thorn, and even a staple in my tire. Today I am going to try Flatout in my tube see if that might work...Yeah
I have checked and no spokes in the tire...

Run tubeless, pain is over.. Simple as that
I do the exact same thing. But I carry a rechargeable tire pump instead of co2.My current Protection for all my Bikes & eBikes = Mr Tuffy Liners + FlatOut Sportsman Formula Sealant... I carry C02 inflator in case I get a flat ans lose a bit of air - I can represurize with C02 which also helps FlatOut to seal better. All to the good !
i have never tried slime but have heard of it, can you put it inside tube that have never been punctures just incase? Or would you carry it with you just incase.Quit riding over glass and nails.......kidding aside.......where are you riding.....I ride most days....have over 650 miles in last year.....never had a flat.....there are all kinds of products you can add inside your tires....liners....slime.....etc......maybe one would help you.....good luck.
There is also tannerus tire armour inserts. If you use tannerus inserts, you need to refer to the inner tube chart for required inner tube size.Four flat tires in the last five rides Help needed. I have a 26x1.95 tire with a tube. Any suggestions or help ?
Is this a pump you carry on your bike? Who is it made by?I do the exact same thing. But I carry a rechargeable tire pump instead of co2.
I was reading on Flat Out, do you think it will seal a ½inch hole? I think I read that on the bottle. I'm going to try some on some new fat bike tires.On your next eBike/Bike - try FlatOut - frankly I'm very impressed with it - 16 oz each of my eBike Tires - and 4 oz in each of my eScooter tires. Kerep the beat !
