I have had the complete opposite experience. Of a dozen or so flat I have had two that couldn't temporarily be pumped up by a small compressor or can of fix a flat. Were they "repairable" ? No, but they held long enough to get someplace for a proper fix. I always carry a can even though I haven't had a flat in many many years now.


If I go out and find a flat tire today I am holding you personally responsible for making me say that.
