Slime 10015 Bike Tube Puncture Repair Sealant. Prevent and Repair. Suitable for all Bicycles, E-Scooters, Prams and other Vehicles fitted with Inner Tubes. Non-Toxic. 237 mL (8oz) bottle

I had a bicycle puncture while on holiday and the tyre went completely flat so I ordered some of this slime to our holiday park. I put in about half of the slime and pumped the tyre up. It held pressure for a few minutes and then went flat again. I was disappointed but the puncture was likely significant and this was my last resort anyway as I had no tools or puncture repair kit. It was a rear wheel with disc break so I didn’t really have any hope of a repair! I then tried again with the remaining half a bottle as I had nothing to lose and miraculously the second time it worked! The repair held and I’ve been using the bike without problems for the remainder of the holiday. Very grateful for this slime and will definitely use again preventatively next time. Just a quick note on the valve core removal - the tool clips onto the core and then you turn anti clockwise to gently unscrew and remove. This wasn’t very well explained in the instructions or videos I found. Otherwise all very straightforward to use.

Works like magic, no complaints for now, I will recommend.

It is working. But contains tube only for shrader valve. I have adapter (short narrower tube) for presta, otherwise You need to use elecrical tape around valve to increase girth, and can be filled on. Just check if valve core is removable. It stays up to 2 years in tube. Sometimes fail to seal puncture, but in this case turn wheel "puncture down" pump it, and wait 2 minutes. Sorted. Best tube sealant so far for me.

I recently had the opportunity to try out the Slime Bike Tube Puncture Prevention Kit on my electric scooter, and overall, I found it to be a reliable and convenient solution for preventing punctures. Here's my review based on my experience: Installation Process: The process of inserting the Slime puncture prevention solution into the tube was surprisingly simple and hassle-free. The kit includes clear instructions that are easy to follow, even for someone with minimal mechanical skills. I appreciated the inclusion of an applicator tool that made the task much easier, allowing me to inject the Slime solution directly into the tube without any mess or difficulty. The entire installation process took only a few minutes, which is a big plus for those looking for a quick and efficient solution. Puncture Prevention: After using the Slime Bike Tube Puncture Prevention Kit, I noticed a significant reduction in punctures during my rides. The Slime solution forms a protective seal inside the tube that instantly seals any punctures caused by small nails, thorns, or other sharp objects. This added layer of protection provided me with peace of mind, knowing that I had an extra defense against unexpected flats. The kit claims to be effective for up to two years, and so far, it has lived up to that promise. Performance: During my rides with the Slime-treated tube, I experienced a noticeable improvement in the overall durability of my electric scooter's tires. The Slime solution helped maintain proper tire pressure, reducing the instances of slow leaks and maintaining a smooth ride. However, it is worth noting that the added weight of the Slime inside the tube could slightly affect the scooter's performance, especially in terms of acceleration and handling. While the impact was not significant, it is something to consider for those seeking peak performance from their electric scooters. Compatibility: The Slime Bike Tube Puncture Prevention Kit is compatible with a wide range of bike and scooter tubes, making it a versatile choice for different types of riders. Whether you have a standard bike, electric scooter, or even a wheelchair, this kit is designed to work effectively across various applications. Conclusion: In conclusion, the Slime Bike Tube Puncture Prevention Kit is a reliable and easy-to-use solution for preventing punctures. The straightforward installation process, long-lasting effectiveness, and compatibility with different tube types make it a valuable investment for anyone seeking to protect their tires from unexpected flats. While it may slightly affect performance, the added benefits outweigh the minimal trade-offs. I would highly recommend this product to fellow riders who want a hassle-free and effective puncture prevention solution for their bikes or electric scooters.

I cycle lots - mostly on paths, trails and rougher surfaces (as well as some roads) - I consider that punctures are inevitable; some time ago, I read an article about Slime Smart Tubes and was intrigued. I now have slime-filled tubes on two other bikes and find these to be excellent. This purchase was made because of my exceptional experience with the others: no punctures for 3 years over (many, many) hundreds of miles unforgiving terrain! Speed freaks will tell you that slime-filled tubes add weight to your bike; and they do, but this is a small price to pay for puncture protection (in my view). I bought this pack as a DIY option for the tubes on a new commuter folding bike, hoping that I would get the same level of puncture protection without having to buy the tubes as well (cheaper and more environmentally friendly)! Slime Smart Tubes tubes function best as protection against annoying pin-prick punctures (small thorns etc.) they do not guard against large gashes or pinch-flats, but they are not meant to. The 'slime' is a green liquid that coats the inner of the tube as you ride; on exposure to the air it hardens to a plug that seals the gap. I was a little worried that during the installation process, I would end up with green slime spraying everywhere but this was not the case and filling the tubes was very easy. One 237ml bottle will treat two tubes up to 29" so using the same amount of slime on two 20" tubes probably amounts to overkill. Anyhoo, the product is easy to use - deflate the tyres, remove the valves using the tool provided with the bottle, attach a plastic hose to the bottle and the valve on your tube and squeeze the bottle. Provided you made an a tight seal, the slime will go in the tube, not on the floor! A top tip is to have the vale positioned anywhere but at the 6 o'clock position (the higher the better). Half the bottle contents goes in each tube. Replace the valves and inflate - it really is that easy! When you ride, the slime will be distributed inside the tube. So far (and touching wood) I have been puncture free on my other bikes since adding slime tubes - I see no reason why the DIY version of the product should be any different. Note that because the Slime Smart Tubes are under pressure, when topping-up air (which they require rarely) some slime will spray from the valve - this can be reduced by rotating the wheel so that the valve is at the top and leaving it for 10 minutes to allow the slime to settle at the bottom of the tube. This method is also useful if you want to deflate the tube to replace a worn tyre. Highly recommended.

Picture the scene of frustration, two days, two punctures. Both times I had repaired or replaced the inner tube, then the next day on the way to work, that new inner tube punctures as well. I had had enough of punctures, and I had heard of slime, but been a little sceptical. This was the final straw, as a quick fix, I purchased some magic green slime from my local dealer (sounds dodgier than it is). Applying the slime to a schrader (car type) valve is incredibly easy. The plastic lid is used to unscrew the inside of the valve, the tube is connected, and half a bottle squeezed in. A little messy if you're not careful, but much less taxing than changing a tube. I gave the tyre a few quick spins, then inflated it. Almost miraculously, the puncture was repaired. I was a convert to the mystical healing powers of slime. "I must go and review this with 5 stars on Amazon", I thought. But of course, one must give the product a full and fair trial first... ;) A couple of weeks later the other tyre also punctured, so I used the slime in that tyre and it fixed it immediately. Amazing. I didn't notice any difference in the feel of the bike, so everything was happy. For a couple of months all was good, but then the limitations began to show. Firstly, I experienced a puncture in the middle of the ride. I heard the tell-tale hiss of air, I cycled on, hoping that the slime would fix it. After a little way I stopped to see a small amount of green goo spurting out of the tyre. It hadn't worked yet, but I kept cycling and within a short period of time it seemed to be ok. I made it to work and home again later that day, albeit with a bit of a reduced pressure. However, that night I tried to pump the tyre up to my usual pressure of 80psi, and the repair failed :( the tube could no longer keep up the pressure. I thought this must have been some huge puncture of the type rarely seen, but actually when I changed the tube, was probably notably less than 2mm on its longest length (the size it claims to protect up to). However, I did notice on the tyre a significant number (maybe 4-6) smaller holes that would easily have been slow leaks, or even fast ones, were it not for the green stuff. So the slime does work, but not as well as you might like. I would hope that the 'technology' will develop over the future such that this is an even better solution. It definitely has its uses as a form of protection that will make it much more likely that you will get where you need to go on time, but the higher the pressure of your tyre, the smaller the hole it will protect you from. In hindsight, I should just have switched to more puncture resistant tyres sooner. I have just switched to Schwalbe Marathon Plus , which have very good reviews in terms of the many years various cyclists have gone without punctures, and I suspect that this will be the more effective solution in the long run. Most of my punctures seemed to come from small stones getting embedded in the tyres, and I can't imagine the 'smartguard' on these tyres being perceptible to such things. It's a case of prevention vs cure, and it's also perfectly acceptable to use both better tyres and slime.

I was very sceptical of this stuff. Not going to lie. I ended up buying it despite of some stupid people on YouTube claiming it didn't work after filling a tyre with it then deliberately hammering a nail into their bike wheel - as if that's representative of the real world. Anyway. I actually already had a slow puncture in the read tyre of my bike before I put the slime in. I'd pump it up and it's hold air for a day or so but was flat after that. I installed the slime, pumped the tyre back up. Went on a slow, short trip round the block to distribute the slime throughout the tube and put the bike back in the garage. Checked on it the next day, still fine, the day after, fine, got to the weekend, no problems. I cycled a 70 mile round trip on the Sunday, got back home was fine still. So the slime had already sealed the puncture properly by this point. I've used the bike since and it wasn't until the other day I went on another short ride, about 23 miles in the end. 4 miles from home I must have got another puncture and instead of, like normal, the tyre just quickly going flat and rolling on the rims, the tyre slowly (enough that I didn't notice immediately) lost pressure to the point where it got to about 20psi (where I'd realised it was pretty squishy and not riding properly) but it never went completely flat and had obviously self sealed at 20psi. I didn't bother pumping it up for the sake of 4 miles and rode the rest of the trip on it no problem. When I got home I pumped it back up to 60psi and it's stayed there since. Amazing stuff. As for installing it, you'll need Schrader valves because you need to remove the valve core in order to put the slime into the tyres. The cap of the bottle is actually the tool to remove the valve core so don't throw it away! What I did was have the tyre so that the air inlet to the tube was about four o'clock. This way the slime was going in and there was no air getting trapped pushing it back out again (which is what happened first time I tried with the tyre inlet all the way at the bottom). The bottle is clearly marked for the correct amount of slime to put into each wheel. I had no problems getting the valve cores in or out with the supplied tool. Everything went well and there was only a little bit of spillage when removing the pipe from the inlet. Just make sure you have some kitchen roll or an old cloth or something to clean up with and you're all set. I can't fault this stuff. I heard online that other people have managed to put this in Presta valved tubes by using a large syringe and needle, filling the syringe with slime, injecting it into the tube and either letting the slime itself plug the "puncture" or patching it up when done. I haven't tried this and to be honest I'm a bit sceptical about this approach as there are what look like black tiny chunks of rubber in the slime and I'm not convinced they'd go through the needle. Anyway, just a note, this stuff is nor for Presta valved tubes as you cannot remove the valve core in order to quirt the slime into the tube properly. I've no idea if this would work with European "Dunlop" valves but the supplied pipe would, I think, be too big, so again you might have to get inventive. Anyway, that's my review. Just wanted to comment on how this stuff has successfully fixed two punctures without so much as me having to take the wheel off. I am super impressed.

For me this didn’t work, had a pin size hole, added half the bottle, added air spun the wheel, went flat, removed the inner tube could see the slime leaking out the hole like water for next hour and stayed flat since, this slimes like water doesn’t work, soon as I poured it out I knew it wasn’t going to work is much better ones out there that work

Produkt testowałem w dwóch rowerach i niestety mam mieszane odczucia. W rowerze mojej żony — z cienkimi oponami, w których powietrze notorycznie uciekało — sprawdził się znakomicie. Po aplikacji preparatu koło trzyma powietrze doskonale, problem z ciągłym dopompowywaniem zniknął. Niestety w moim rowerze MTB z grubszymi oponami i dętką uszkodzoną przez drobną, około milimetrową dziurkę, preparat zupełnie się nie sprawdził. Szlam wypływał przez dziurę, nie był w stanie jej zakleić, a podczas pompowania elektryczną pompką wręcz wystrzeliwał z dętki. Próbowałem też kręcenia kołem, odczekiwania aż wyschnie, dodatkowego łatania — bez skutku. Podsumowując: produkt działa, ale nie w każdej sytuacji. Do drobnych nieszczelności w cienkich oponach jest OK. W przypadku większych obciążeń czy MTB — lepiej mieć pod ręką tradycyjny zestaw naprawczy lub nową dętkę.

Ein ganz tolles Mittel, um meine E Scooter Reifen zu „flicken“. Sehr leichte Handhabung, die Reparatur geht damit ganz schnell. Kaufe ich gerne wieder, weil ich top zufrieden mit Preis und Leistung bin.

Vorgeschichte(kann übersprungen werden): Ich wohne etwas abgelegen und das Fahrrad ist für mich aus gesundheitlichen Gründen(Wirbelsäule, Probleme mit längeren Strecken gehen) ein sehr wichtiges Transportmittel. Das Hinterrad verlor vor einigen Tagen plötzlich Luft(nach aufpumpen in wenigen Stunden komplett leer). Also bestellte ich zwei Schläuche und entdeckte beim stöbern auf Slime. Ich las die Rezensionen, recherchierte im Netz. Wie meistens, wurden zwei grundverschiedene Meinungen vertreten. Die einen schimpfen über negative Nebenwirkungen wie verklebte Ventile, buhten "funzt nicht" bla bla, und die anderen behaupteten "hielt bis nachhause/ bis zum Fahrradklempner" , "hält einige Wochen", "hält sehr lange". Der Hersteller sagt sogar "bis zu zwei Jahre". Hmm ich bin kein Fan von "bis zu" weil es doch zu relativ ist. Wer möchte schon ein Brot essen, wenn auf der Verpackung steht "hält bis zu zwei Jahre" und zwei Wochen sind schon verstrichen? Mit "mindestens" könnte man mehr anfangen. Lange Rede kurzer Sinn: Da ich mir die demontage des Hinterrads(Gangschaltung etc) ersparen wollte, dachte ich "Das Fahrrad ist für mich sehr wichtig und 10 Euro zusätzlich für einen Test investieren, wäre nicht verkehrt. Vielleicht funktioniert das sogar, wenn nicht, hab ich die Schläuche und muss mit der Demontage/Montage halt in den Sauren Apfel beißen". Überraschung: Ich ließ die Luft raus, füllte etwas von dem "Slime" in den Reifen, pumpte diesen auf, und drehte ihn, damit das Zeug sich verteilen konnte. So wird es auch in der Anleitung beschrieben. Danach fuhr ich 5 Minuten um das Zeug besser im Reifen zu verteilen. Ich ließ das Fahrrad einen Tag stehen. Am nächsten tag ging ich nachsehen und erwartete ehrlich gesagt eine Enttäuschung, nämlich einen platten Reifen. Ich war sehr überrascht und erfreut; Reifen bombenfest, genau wie nach dem auffüllen/aufpumpen. Ich bin mittlerweile mit dem Fahrrad einige Tage gefahren und hab das Gefühl dass der Hinterreifen sogar weniger Luft verliert, als vor der Panne. Was ich nicht so toll finde: Man kann nicht sehen, wie viel Slime man in den Reifen "gepumpt" hat. Für Fahrradreifen soll man ca. 118ml einfüllen. Wie man das Messen soll, ist mir schleierhaft. Es gibt zwar einige Markierungen auf der Flasche, doch wie soll man diese ablesen? Flasche auf dem Kopf, beim abfüllen? Danach Flasche aufrecht stellen und schätzen? Wobei man kaum erkennen kann wo die "Flüssigkeit" genau steht, egal ob gekippt oder nicht. Doch diese Unannehmlichkeit ist keinen Sternabzug wert. Es wäre vielleicht eine Überlegung wert, etwas in eine kleinere Plastikflasche zu füllen um diese für Notfälle immer bei sich zu haben. Die große Flasche hier ist etwas zu groß und zu schwer um sie immer mit "herumzutragen". Ausserdem ist es eine klebrige Angelegenheit wenn man das auf die Hände bekommt, lässt sich aber mit etwas Wasser und Seife leicht abwaschen. Ich bin gespannt wie lange die "Reparatur" hält, und werde nach einiger Zeit einige Anmerkungen dazu hinzufügen. Anmerkung nach fast genau einem Monat: Der mit Slime "reparierte" Reifen ist noch immer ok, verliert keine Luft und hält die Luft sogar länger als vor der Panne(bleibt sehr lange sehr fest). Auch das aufpumpen nach einigen Wochen war kein Problem(keine vertstopften Ventile). Ich bin sehr froh dass ich mir damit die Demontage/Montage des Hinterreifens und eventuelle Probleme mit der Gangschaltung (er)sparen konnte. Anmerkung nach fast einem Jahr: inzwischen hatte ich zwei weitere Pannen. Bei der ersten war der Reifen wenige Std. nach dem aufpumpen platt. Bei der letzten vor einigen Wochen schon wenige Minuten später da das Loch hörbar groß war, und da dachte ich das wars; "das Zeug wird dir nicht mehr helfen". Doch ich fahre dank diesem Zeug noch immer mit dem Schlauch den ich vor einem Jahr erwähnte. Unglaublich. Ich glaube ich hab noch für eine oder zwei "Reparatur/en" was übrig in der Flasche. Das hat sich auf jeden Fall gelohnt und ersparte mir nun schon seit einem Jahr die für mich sehr unangenehme "echte" Reparatur. Auf die Monate gerechnet, bezahlte ich nicht mal einen Euro pro Monat. Letzte Anmerkung: Trotz der vielen Löcher und des alten Reifens habe ich den Reifenwechsel bis April 2025 hinausgezögert. Zuletzt verlor der Reifen Luft, doch das Loch war sowohl im Schlauch als auch am Mantel und ziemlich groß. Trotzdem brachte das Nachfüllen etwas weil das Fahrrad mich mehrere male immerhin bis nach Hause brachte. Das was das Zeug geleistet hat war eine sehr beachtliche Leistung denn der Reifen hatte mehrere male heftig was abbekommen. Ich habe trotzdem noch was in der Flasche übrig was vermutlich für noch ein "Flickvorgang" reichen wird. Den Reifen und Schlauch habe ich gewechselt und es ging einfacher als ich es erwartet hätte. Ich würde es trotzdem wieder erst mit diesem Artikel versuchen denn die Erfahrung war wirklich sehr positiv. Gehalten hat es vom September 2023 bis April 2025! Wäre das letzte Loch nicht aussen sowohl am Mantel als auch am Schlauch und etwas kleiner, hätte es noch viel länger gehalten.

If I'm buying a bicycle or anything that has tires on it I buy slime for everything. If you have a tube and something. I put 8 oz of slime in every tube I have. I rotated three or four 10 times. Make sure it gets the entire inner tube.
