[dsn_klr650] slime and tubes

[richardk@infinet.net]

re slime - it will solve small punctures, but won't heal everything. Helps keeps your tires balanced - for the price, why not? Only thing is, it makes patching a tube much harder. Just carry preslimed tubes and swap 'em out if you do get a flat. I carry a front and rear tube - has anyone ridden on a front tube in a rear tire for a long distance? I would much rather just carry the one tube if I could be sure it wouldn't pinch, then swap it for the correct one when I got home. On the wrenches - I spoke with Dual Star a few weeks ago - they weren't happy with the quality of the laser-cut wrenches, which has delayed production somewhat until they can tweak it, sounds like they've got pretty high standards, so I'm prepared to wait for a good product. If you're thinking of buying them, ring and order now - they won't bill until they ship - but then they know exactly how many paying customers are waiting, and will put a higher priority on getting them out (their words). Sounds like they're busy there... carmic7@... wrote:
