What is a puncture repair kit?<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Puncture repair kits come in all shapes and sizes, and there are a lot of them to choose from. Essentially, they consist of a combination of tools that will help you repair a puncture.<\/p>\n
Typically, these tools come bundled up in a small case or pouch. To repair a puncture, you need a scuffer (such as a sandpaper square or similar), a vulcanising\/rubber solution (which almost works as a glue for the patch), a patch and two tyre levers to help you remove your tyre.<\/p>\n
Having said that, some puncture repair kits come with self-adhesive patches, meaning there is no need for a vulcanising solution. Some kits may not include tyre levers, which means you\u2019ll need to purchase them separately.<\/p>\n
