Patches? We don’t need no stinkin’ Patches!

If you’re anything like me you are super handsome and very frugal. The cost of tubes are shockingly high, some range from $6-$10! So rather than just throwing away a tube that got a flat, I decided to buy a large patch kit. Large as in 48 patches and a big tube of rubber cement. It cost me about $5 from Ebay.

The funny thing about this is I’ve found it satisfying to patch old tubes that were destined for repurposing as a new wallet, necklace, bracelet or as trash in the local landfill.

So the question of the day, do you PATCH or just replace? If you say “GO TUBELESS BRO!” Just shut up, cuz you and I both know that if your Stan’s sealant doesn’t work, you’re busting out that extra tube you have in your hydration pack or seat bag.
