Safety: Danger. Highly flammable liquid and vapour. Causes skin irritation. May cause drowsiness or dizziness. Very toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects. Read the label before use.

A small bicycle puncture repair kit in a handy case, for mending an inner tube with glued patches at home or on a ride. Going by its listing, it carries featheredge patches, an abrasive pad to rough up the rubber and a tube of glue, which is everything a classic repair needs except tyre levers and a pump.

Good to know

• How do I make a patch hold? A tube puncture patch holds when the area is roughened, the vulcanising solution is left until it is dry to the touch, and the patch is pressed firmly.
• How do I find the hole? Pump the tube up and listen, or dunk it in water and watch for bubbles, then mark the spot before you let the air out.
• Will the glue last in the bag? Keep the cap screwed down tight; an opened tube can dry out, so check it before a long ride.

Which one?

For a quick glueless fix, the Sport Direct Cycle Self-Seal Puncture Repair Kit (SRKS03) or the bigger Sport Direct Cycle Deluxe Self-Seal Puncture Repair Kit (SRKS04); to get the tyre off, the Simply Cycling Cycle Tyre Levers 3pk (CC034).
