Newb Tubular Question

[steve575]

I finally got to do a race today on my new tubulars, and poked a tiny hole in one of them. The tires are Tufo Flexus and the hole looks like a thorn may have caused it. It leaks down slowly, over a period of about 5 or 10 minutes. My question is, how do I fix it? Do I have to pull it off, open it up, and patch the tube, or can I just add some sealant, like Stan’s?

the stan's stuff is good stuff as well.

You do the gun club race?

Wanted to do that one.

Thanks Flux. I was hoping I could fix it that easily.

Yeah Pres. it was the Gun Club race. It was a great event. The course was had some nice fast sections mixed in with the technical. The double sand pits were quite a challenge. I think I lost a spot every time I came through them. Awsome weather for a cross race.
How about the John Bryan race this weekend?

I can't race for awhile. Had a student open a door and gash into my heels. I can't wear shoes with backs in them...thank goodness for Birks.

I look/walk a crippled old man.

I should be fine for Champions park (USGP course) and then the only one here in INDY.

Kid almost got popped too. :D
