Hello everyone. I really tried to search the forum, but couldn't find any posts that answered my question...
I have settled down on going for a tube-setup with Tubolito or Revoloop and Continental GP5000. I got rim brakes. I am planning to use this mainly as a race setup, going with ordinary tubes in training.
If, knock on wood, I would be so unlucky to get a flat in a 70.3 or 140.6-race, would it be best to use foam, like Vittoria Pitstop, or change the tube? I don't even know if it is possible to use foam in these kind of tubes. This is just to get to T2, I don't care if the tube or tire isn't possible to use afterwards. I guess it depends on when you get a flat and how big the hole is, but let's say it is a small hole at the last 1/3 of the bikeleg.
Are there any other time saving "hacks" out there, just to get to T2? I have heard that superglue have been used on the outside of the tire on tubulars, but this would be far fetched on a clincher.
