Friday, puncture again. Luckily I'm now carrying spares tubes.
That's three in a month. So I just got 3 tubes for £10 at halfords, (the Raleigh branded ones didn't seem to be working out so I'm buying even cheaper)
How often is this going to happen?
I average 3 punctures a year which is one every 3000 miles on three bikes. However I also replace the tyres every year or after two punctures which ever is sooner. I have only twice replaced a tyre due to the two puncture "rule".
Also once a week a visually inspect the tyres and pull out any grit that is stuck in them.
You can pick up tubes much cheaper online.
