No Bueno. Hopefully the scoot was parked when this happened .

I thought these were still on test before being released to the public

on test ? i brought these about 18 months ago from mb
and raised concerns with them about tube

[soulsurfer]

Aah, It must be the new ones with the offset valve that's on test.

Still, glad you and the scoot are okay and gives me more confidence having the sealant in my tubes.

I'm in the States and have not heard of this "Slime". Is that a trade name, or a nickname for the product? There are products here in the auto parts stores that state on the tin that they do the same thing, but your "Slime" story is a great testimonial for it.

There's usually not much time between that "mmm scoot dont feel right feeling" and hitting the pavement, so I'd love to be able to buy the same stuff state side.

Gotta be cheaper than tubeless rims too..!

What's the real name please?

Ultraseal

cant remeber the name of stuff i used perhaps it was called slime ? ultraseal is the name of one but its lot dearer than the stuff i brought
