I have tried three different brands and all have failed at high pressure on road bike tiers - Vulcanized patches are the rule - And - Applying vulcanizing cement to both the patch and tube then letting them completely dry before applying helps too...

Also - When the self adhesive patches do hold they only wait for the temp to get hot then they melt off...
