@@iconyx1227 That's because of the risk of sealing the valve stem. I'll take that risk. Won't need it anymore if my tire never goes flat. And I could just replace it if it did.

6 months after putting flat out in tire, my rear tire must of ran thru something sharp as the tire was half deflated. Once I pumped air back in the sealant covered the spot and tire still good of 4 months after. Its the repumping air in helps to fill those holes as well. Too much pressure over the PSI mark will deflate tire when coming across Bumbs or curbs. Fat tire is 20.lbs PSI.

I have been watching videos for flat out and slime, after watching this video I have decided to try this product. I have slime tubes installed on a couple of my bikes and so far have had no punctures. But now I have an electric bike I want the added peace of mind. Your video was great, explains everything well and shows real puncture tests. I've never before had a punture as large as that 3/8 drill bit made, so hopefully that luck will continue for me, I've been bicycling for 53 years so far. Thank-you.

It might have worked if it had more flat out in it. It probably was low from the last two drill holes so I bet it would have had a better chance with adding more flat out after the 1/4 in drill hole. But great stuff

Great video!! For some reason, i got 2 flats within the past month. Both times i had slime in my rear tire and it didn't help much. 1st time it was a key that made the flat 2nd time (today) it was a drywall screw. Gonna try flatout and hope it works better. I may try tannus armor but really don't want to shell out $111.

Damn! Sorry to hear that. Hopefully flatout helps!

This is my 1st exposure to this product so please correct any inaccuracies but if I understand this, it remains in liquid state, only to solidify around a leak...a scab of sorts, lol. 1 of the benefits of the green goo it's that when correctly applied, it gives an even coat. Given this, how does a constant liquid affect tire balance? Without a correction for this consideration, any motorized vehicles w this should be banned from freeways!

@maximumchargeEV

I'm not sure about what you're saying, but a small hole filled with a solidified flatout clump has a negligible amount of weight and will barely effect wheel balance.

I'm pretty impressed with this test. Do you know if Flatout works with inner tubes? I realise it works better with Tubless, but I'm looking at this strictly from a "Get Me Home!" standpoint. Once I'm home I'll change the tube, I just don't want to be doing it on the side of the road. I've been using slime since they have a varient for inner tubes, but from what I've seen here Flatout may be better. I don't think I'll be running over any 3/8 drill bits, just want it to work with standard nails & thorns. I hate to do this to you, but I'd love to see that 3/8 test again on a fully inflated tire and a fresh load of flatout (I'm guessing you lost quite a bit of the sealent in the previous tests). Liked and subscribed, this was a really good video.

Should have used soapy water

Just wanted to add a comment that might help others when they get an ebike flat . First rest assured you eventually you will get one. Knowing in advance how to handle the situation will help you stay calm & prevent you from damaging your bike. First when you get a flat do not try to walk it to a convenient place to repair it; this will damage the tire & worse cause permanent damage to the rim. Park & lock the bike as close to where the flat occurred. If you have your cell phone with you call for assistance ; if not walk to the nearest place where you can get help. Go back home get your truck or car go back where you locked the bike bring it home & repair it or take it to a shop to repair it for you.

Or you could always carry a patch kit, just fix the flat and keep going. I remember feeling a bit intimidated about fixing a flat on my first fat tire e-bike, especially the rear one. Turns out, it's pretty easy, and you don't even need to remove the tire. I firmly believe that if you're going to ride an e-bike, it's a good idea to learn these basic skills. That said, I do use Flat Out in my tires now simply because fixing flats all the time can get tiresome!
