GG170 Emergency Motorcycle Tyre Repair Kit

I originally bought this kit about 4 years ago, used it twice or three times, worked like a charm. I did not have puncture for about 2 years and lost the kit somewhere so i had to order a new one, this was my obvious first choice as it worked well previously. Patched hole is solid right after fixing the puncture and can be ridden without any worries. If you do run out of sticks or glue just get them cheap on eBay or somewhere, they go for silly cheap price and keep using this kit as tools are good quality and kit is very compact and light weight.

Don’t often write reviews but this is genuinely a great product, first used when another biker pulled over to rescue me with his kit, purchased my own kit and have since rescued another biker myself, tools are easy to use and create a good seal that will last, only thing I would say is that for me the C02 canisters equate to only about 20psi in the tyre once expended, enough to get you to a service station or use two and finish your journey.

This kit is exceptionally well-suited for storage beneath a motorcycle seat. It has proven invaluable on two separate occasions, effectively resolving puncture-related issues.

Didn't want to leave a review until it'd been used in anger. I'm not yet making trips across the alps and Europe but do commute to and from work most days. Unfortunately I got a big nail in the rear tyre. Managed to pull out the nail using a multitool - might be worth adding some cheap pliers to the kit. The guys at work all watched over me dubious if it'd work. I only repaired the hole didn't use the CO2 as we had a pump. The hole was easily repaired and has held remarkably well. I've been naughty (ignoring official advice) and left the fix in place and kept checking it for any loss of pressure. I've put well over 1k miles on it and barely lost a psi over that time. Its a good seal that I trust - obviously use your own judgement as to whether a new tyre or fix is needed! I'd fully reccomend putting this kit under your seat.

Small enough to be kept under the seat on the bike. Only had to use it the once thankfully, got me home without too much fuss.

Love the size of this kit. It fits perfect into a small tailpack or rucksack pocket & is very light. Thankfully I've not had to test it but I wouldn't be without it after watching a mate get out of trouble with his whilst we were on tour which prompted me to buy one myself.

Hope i never have to use it, Sorry can't give a better review.

I've never had a bike puncture but suffered several in cars over the years and thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to buy one of these kits. If I ever need to use it and it works sufficiently to get me home then I'll have to be a happy bunny but I will reserve judgement and do have some minor concerns. . . . . The adapter has two threaded sections, a gold-coloured one to accept the tyre valve and at 90 degrees to that, one to accept the CO2 cylinder. The threaded ring which attaches to the tyre valve is free to rotate within the body of the adapter, presumably so that the position of the adapter can be adjusted to allow clearance for the unit when mounted on a wheel which only provides minimal space. The gold ring does seem rather loose within the adapter and I can't see how it would provide an air-tight seal when attempting to inflate the tyre. Clearly, I don't want to carry this kit around for the next few years and then find, on first use the air all leaks out of the adapter when attempting to inflate the tyre and so before I store it in the darker recesses of my panniers, I will try and source a spare CO2 cylinder and run through the inflation procedure to make sure it will work when needed in anger. Other than that, the kit seems acceptable although I was a little disappointed with the 40mph speed limit following repair . . . this is, afterall an "emergency only" repair kit and when you get home, you are advised to remove the tyre and have it professionally repaired. Being naturally lazy, if the limit had been a more acceptable 60mph+, I would have elected to wear out my tyre and then replace but 40mph is just a little too slow to be acceptable . . . maybe that's a good thing!!
