Wiggle £7.99 posted instead of £9.99 just make sure you select free postage (usually next day ) 😀

Yeah but unfortunately out of stock, and i've got two flat tyres on different bikes. They were my original choice 😐

Make your own? That's what I'm doing when I use up the remains of my wheel milk - lots of recipes out there

A recipe
1 part latex (get at Michaels art supply)
1 part tubeless slime (any discount sports store like Dicks)
1 part antifreeze (you should be able to figure this out)
2 parts water (same as above)
1/2 part glitter (gives the sealant something to bond to for larger holes and speeds up the seal too)

Can you really be bothered? Personally, I'd be worried about it clogging the valves.

Cheers guys. I'll look at the options. I've used the specialised stuff and its crap, sits in a big lump and doesn't seal.
