A friend suggested this as a method to extend the life of of my road bike tires. Any one tried this or have a reason not to try it? Thanks in advance.
There is a much better product for this use, Freesole, which can be had at shoe repair stores, boot shop and stores that specialize in running shoes. I've used it for 4 years now and am very happy with the way it seals the holes and cuts made by sharp objects. I inspect my tires after each ride and apply Freesole to fill the hole or cut. It should be kept in the fridge or freezer it increase its' shelf life.dougrocky123 said:A friend suggested this as a method to extend the life of of my road bike tires.

Funny how (us) the consumer goes: it all comes down to marketing.rogerstg said:FWIW, Shoe goo, GOOP and E6000 are the same product. Same company, same factory, diff packaging. Even most of the specific GOOP products are the same (All Purpose; Automotive; Craft; Household). It's all in the marketing: people favor buying products specifically made for their needs. Hmm,maybe they'll come out with "Bike Tire" packaging next?

Both, but mostly use GOOP for gluing eyes onto saltwater streamers. It makes a good head cement when thinned with Xylene too.saf-t said:FW or SW?
