Hey guys, ran into a big boo boo while wheeling today. At our usual spot I ran over a broken off piece of barbed wire and it punctured my tire. Lucky I was able to ride home with it. The puncture is approximately 2mm x 2mm maybe a little more. It's not leaking air badly but I am sure by tonight it will be completely flat. Will tire slime fix my problem? My friend also suggested tire plugs. What are some other recommendations for fixing small punctures? I think I might try the slime and the plug, all feed back is appreciated! Please help a fellow rider out asap

Yeah I would definetly use a plug. They are really easy to use and last so much longer. Plus when you take the tire off if you would with that fix a flat it is like full of all that nasty slime stuff and it get everywhere.

slime didnt work for my hole in the side wall. if it is really small, get super glue. it works good.
