Would Switching to Slime Tubes Prevent Pinch Flats?
Since switching to 700c x 25 tires a few weeks ago, I've been plagued with pinch flats. I'm 6'2-6'3 and about 240 lbs. Some people on this forum suggested pumping my tires to the maximum pressure each morning, and this has been very successful at preventing flats. Unfortunately, I got another pinch flat this morning. The roads I ride on aren't the best, but I didn't strike any large potholes or anthing like that.
My question is this: would slime tubes go a long way towards fixing my problem? The pinch flats I get are so small, and I'm thinking that slime tubes would be just the thing to seal them up.
What does everyone think? Would switching from standard tubes to slimes solve my problems, or is it not that easy?
