Probably mine was avoidable if someone had done there job right.There's no rhyme or reason to punctures, I've gone up to a year without any, but then I've had up to four in one day. It's just the luck of the draw.
If all you can write is rude insults then don't bother it's pathetic.An "all the gear no idea" merchant then. Obviously not someone who's been riding bikes since they were a small kid and had to learn to sort problems like punctures out themselves. I never cease to be amazed by the ineptitude and lack of common sense in some so-called grown-ups.
The OP in this thread takes it to another level. Like some others, I don't tend to carry puncture repair kits if I'm only going a couple of miles down the road. I take my chances and accept the walk of shame if the Fairy comes calling. But if I'm going somewhere that will take me over an hour to walk back from, then I take a pump and a patch kit. To not have any means of fixing a puncture on a 50 mile ride is utterly moronic, and frankly the OP deserved to have to walk it to learn their lesson. Expecting one's other half, or a friend, to drive 50 miles to collect some muppet with no common sense from a situation of their own making, which was entirely foreseeable, is highly inconsiderate.
@SkipdiverJohn was not referring to you and makes a good point, the two cyclists I referred I suspect equally had no idea on how to fix a puncture. In comparison on another ride I was quickly surrounded by cyclists offering assistance literally as soon as opened up a minitool, that was merely a loose camera mount.If all you can write is rude insults then don't bother it's pathetic.

I had the puncture on the rear wheel of a ebike it's more@SkipdiverJohn was not referring to you and makes a good point, the two cyclists I referred I suspect equally had no idea on how to fix a puncture.

The puncture on the rear wheel of a ebike is a bit more complex than a ordinary bike I had Halfords put slime in the tyres and they garantee to repair any small punctures free for too years I know bought a too ended tube that you can put in without removing the wheel and am thinking about fitting a Tannus Amour in the rear last ebike I did over 5000miles without a puncture just slime in the tyres.@SkipdiverJohn was not referring to you and makes a good point, the two cyclists I referred I suspect equally had no idea on how to fix a puncture.
