andrewwynn will become famous soon enough




Found and fixed a puncture. Smallest screw I've ever seen cause a leak.

I used a temporary hand screw in plug they are awesome I've used them about half a dozen times.

They are meant to get you to a repair shop but I've needed them coincidentally when the tires were near end of life so experimentally I've left them in long term with effectively permanent results. That will be the case with this tire as well as it will be replaced within a month.

Everybody should have in your car. It's far easier and cleaner than any rope plug and I've driven at least 3000 miles on one tire with the plug (though I wouldn't recommend it: I had a run flat tire and a spare).
