> Have any of tried such a "flat preventer" before?
slime doesn't work in road tires, the pressure is too great. If it's a
commuter bike, and you don't want to change a flat on the way to work, try
the thorn proof tubes, heavy but they work. Only failure I had with a thorn
proof tube was when the valve finally gave out. You have to catch a nail
like a car tire does to flatten it. Another benefit, is you only have to
pump them up, maybe once a month.
