Has anyone here ridin on a plugged tire for any length of time?? I am a bit worried about riding on a 400 + miler tomorrow on this plugged tire???
Before the Deals Gap trip I bought a tire plug kit and was finally stuck using it this afternoon on the RC. I bought this thing just in case I ever had an issue while far from home, but was hoping to never have to use it.. . Well I have been riding on the rear that had a staple in it for about three weeks. I kept forgeting to pull it out, and wanted to get at it before it went too deep and sprung a leak.. Well I pulled it today and it kept on comming.. Turns out I had a 6 penny ring nail in the fugger. The whole nail was there except the head. So obviously the tire began to go flat. Well I plugged it no problem and used my bicycle pump to fill it back up to 34 psi, I will recheck the pressure in the morning and hope its holding. I am positive it will hold fine. But should I ride on this as if it never happened or should I be precausious?? Or only use it temporarily till I get my new street tires, and ride conservatively, if at all???
I know that rmbbbbbbbbikes & heehawsoogood has riden his with plugs and still tears the streets up, and never had a problem or worry...
Just concerned... Should I be??
