Product Information
Full details
The Velox Tubeless Repair Kit is an essential maintenance solution for mountain bikers and gravel riders who rely on tubeless tire systems to prevent ride-ending flats. Providing a permanent repair method for cuts and punctures, this kit ensures tire longevity by creating an extremely firm seal from the inside; however, it requires the tire to be removed from the rim for proper application, making it less suitable for quick trailside repairs compared to plug-based systems.

FAQs
Can I use this for road bike tubeless tires?
Yes, the kit is suitable for any rubber-based tubeless bicycle tire, provided the puncture is in the casing.
How long does the cement take to dry?
It is recommended to allow the cement to sit until it is tacky to the touch before applying the patch, and to let it cure fully before re-mounting and inflating.
Is this a temporary fix?
No, when applied correctly, the Velox repair is intended to be a permanent fix for the duration of the tire's service life.
Does this replace tubeless sealant?
No, you should still use liquid sealant inside your tire for small punctures, while this kit addresses larger cuts or tears.
What is the marker crayon used for?
The crayon is used to mark the location of the puncture on the outside of the tire so you can easily locate the specific spot once you have removed the tire from the rim.
Troubleshooting
Patch is peeling at the edges
The surface was likely not cleaned well enough before application. Remove the patch, clean the area with a degreaser, dry completely, and re-apply with fresh cement.
Cement has hardened in the tube
Ensure the cap is screwed on tightly after every use and store the tube away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Permanent repair rather than a temporary plug
- Comprehensive kit includes everything needed for multiple repairs
- Highly durable adhesive creates a long-lasting seal
- Effective for both small punctures and larger cuts
Cons
- Requires removing the tire from the rim to apply
- Curing time is required before re-inflation
- Not intended for rapid trailside roadside repairs
Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best results, ensure the tire interior is completely dry and free of old sealant or debris before applying the cement. Always perform this repair in a well-ventilated area to allow the cement fumes to dissipate. Store the 10ml cement tube in a cool, dry place with the cap tightly sealed to prevent the adhesive from drying out. This kit is compatible with all standard rubber-based tubeless bicycle tires but should not be used on tires with severe structural damage to the bead or sidewall.
