Have you ever had a persistent puncture problem? I have a hybrid with 700 x 38 tyres, and three weeks ago I picked up my first puncture in ages. I mended it, checked the tyre for any residual grit, but got another puncture (in a different place) two rides later. Mended again, checked tyre again, but another puncture three rides after that. Went to mend the puncture a day later and the front tyre had gone down this time! Mended two punctures, but this morning I picked up ANOTHER rear tyre flat! I'm becoming expert at this now .... reluctantly. I have checked both tyres thoroughly for offending sharp objects and not found anything. Am I just unlucky? I'm considering "puncture-proof" tryes, and/or tubes ..... are these any good?
