I just had a rather lengthy discussion with a bike shop owner while they were fittin' my new Dunlop on the front of the BA. He said there's very little difference in effectiveness between carrying a rather complex kit that plugs, glues and inflates vs. a simple can of Flat-Fix. In fact, he said the biggest difference is that the plugged tire can later be patched (inside), depending on the location of the puncture, whereas the tire drenched in Flat-Fix can't. Given the risk of riding longterm on a patched tire, that doesn't seem like a valid reason to go to any more trouble than necessary. I have to make this decision myself pretty soon, so I'm wondering if anyone here has ever had a bad experience with the Flat-Fix stuff? I use my Ba for daily commuting, so I only ever really need to ride it for 15 miles max with a reinflated tire.
