They all have fixed many flats in races and all agreed, there had to be a better way, apart from getting the darn tire of the rim,never could find the right tool, Tommy used a chisel!! then to locate the hole in the tube, never did had enough spit, then to get the backing off the patch, that darn sandpaper,never can find it, wheres the HOLE I had it, now the pump wont work, all this while your mates are riding on to victory. SO Tommy said why dont we put an inner tube (A GOOD ONE) inside the tire, fix it to gether someway and carry a spare one with us!!! WELL How do we fix it to gether??
