Is this hole in my rear tire fixable?
(lemmy.world)
I noticed this hole when I got to work in the morning. It lets out enough air that I can hear it when I try to inflate the tire. What are my options here, aside from buying and mounting a new tire? Is this fixable with liquid sealant? A rubber rope kit?
I'm not taking this bike past 90mph, so any fix doesn't need to be capable of withstanding incredibly high stress. But I don't want to be unsafe, either. Thanks for the help.
If it was a puncture i'd just use a simple repair kit and it would hold until the tyre is all worn and needs replacing.
That's a rip, though... unless you use some sealant from the inside... and even then i can't advise on anything from experience, check with your local mechanic.
