Best Sidewall Repair for Paddles ?

[mailman]

I have a small leak in the sidewall of my SLS paddle tire.  What is the best way, other than a new tire, to repair this.  I tried a little slime and it worked well until I ran the bike, then it started leaking again.  I have heard that a tube is ok but the tire pressure must be high which isn't what I want for drag racing.

 

Any luck with tire patches?  The tire stores say they won't do it.

 

Let me know what you guys have tried that works.

I used a patch on the inside, been holding up for a few months now.

You can also send it back to skat trak and they can vulcanize a patch on it for you.

We run skat trac paddles in the coal and put holes in thw side wall a lot we either put a plug in them or patch the inside. I sand down the inside to rough it up use napa vulcanizing. Cement and put a patch over that.

Awesome ideas guys.  Thank you!

 

I will try the patch myself first.  If I fail, then off to Scat Trak it goes.

the plug patches work great also

I got the vulcanizing glue from Napa and a large rubber patch.  It worked great and is holding air with no leaks.  I will post back up if it fails after I run the bike but hopefully not.

Thanks again guys for the replies.
