Sports reviews of Park Tool TR-1 Tire and Tube Repair Kit

Customer Review: Quick patch job to get back on the road
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

The week this product arrived, a friend managed to get a thorn in his tire. We rode to his house and completed the job in 5 minutes. Here are the steps:

-Turned bike upside down and removed wheel
-removed inner tube from tire
-Found the hole (you may need water or soapy water to help)
-Sanded hole area to be patched at least the size of the patch
-Applied the sticky patch. Be careful removing it from it's backing because it is a gooey sticky mess if you aren't careful. Smoothed it out to remove air bubbles
-installation is opposite of removal. Align valve in tube with hole in wheel first
-Push tire and tube onto wheel.
-Pump with air and go bike!

The bike was a Trek about 7 years old, 26" standard style, not MTB or racing type. We did not need the included tire tools, just an air pump. It comes with a little piece of sand paper, but since I knew about it before I left I brought my own sandpaper so I can use the kit sand paper in a real emergency. Sanding the hole prior to patching seems important to remove any loose grim around the hole too allow proper adhesion. The patches are very gooey and sticky. This kit seems good for punctures without having to carry a spare inner tube but won't help if the wound is much larger than a hole from something the size of a standard sized 3.5mm headphone jack.

The tire held up for the afternoon ride, if the patch does not work long term, I'll update this post. Overall I was happy it is light weight and easy to use.
