Rema Tip Top No. F0-P Tube Patch, 16 mm Round Vulcanizing Bike Patches for Tire Inner Tube Repair, Red Edge Patches, 100 Count

I got tired of buying the little patch kits in the stores containing just a few patches, some of which I end up not using as they weren't good sizes. Not to mention that the little glue tubes dry out quickly and get clogged. I also didn't think any other patch I had tried so far was that great. It seemed I was spending more on tiny lower quality patch kits in the long run, than just buying a large quantity in bulk. So I researched and saw that Rema patches were considered top quality by a lot of people. I'm not disappointed. they are excellent and easy to use. And I'm happy that by purchasing this large supply at a reasonable cost I've solved the problem of sometimes running out of patches and being unprepared when a flat happens. Regarding which size to choose, I personally feel this is the size to go with for most tube punctures. Most are not going too be bigger than this..ie..usually from a nail or thorn, tiny chard of glass in the road. If I do once in a while have tube damage bigger than a small puncture, like a split in the tube, it's better to just to change it out altogether.

Glad I found this product! I was getting tired of buying tire repair kits all the time to fix my inner tube due to goatheads! I got lots of extra glue because there's always more glue in those kits than you need! Now that I got these patches I can patch 100 holes. The patches are somewhat smaller than the ones I normally get, but still big enough to do the job! Happy with my purchase!

I use around 2-3 of these a month to patch thorn holes across our 5 bikes and have not had a failure when done properly. Many of our tubes have multiple patches on them and I see no need to toss them as long as they can be repaired.

I love these are smaller. They perfect for fixing small little puncher holes in small bike tubes. If I ever run out I will definitely buy again. I don't know when that will be because I have a lot of them now

These patches come in handy when you're dealing with an inner tube that is intended for skinny tires. They don't stretch with the inner tube when it is inflated as well as the 25 mm patches, hence the four-star instead of five-star rating.

I ride my bike between 20 and 30 miles every week day to commute to work and train on the weekends for triathlons. I get get a lot flats, both pinch flats from hitting potholes and punctures from glass or nails or screws (!) on the road. I've tried bulk patches from various vendors but these are the only ones that are properly vulcanized and will stick to the rubber cement when I patch them. Moreover, the 16mm size is perfect for my road bike sized tires. A lot of the bulk patch sets available on Amazon are HUGE, more appropriate for cruiser, cyclocross, or mountain bike tires. These are the perfect size for a thin tire like a 23 (my racing bike) or a 25 (my commuting bike). The price might seem a little steep but do the math. There are a hundred patches. At $20 that ends up being twenty cents a patch. It's a good deal. Nay, it's a great deal, especially since it's a great product.

Just looks like is made in china and with the stamp of made in Germany. I am 80 years old I had my firs bike when I was 10 and this brand was already in the market it was call tip top in the edges look like soda pop lids an they grab if you follow the cleaning instructions. Make something to work the firstime and customer buy it other wise buy chip Chinese junk.

F0 is the best size for skinny road tubes. More than large enough for a small puncture and easier to put on than the next larger size because they don't wrap so far around the tube. I used with tubes for 23c tires. Too small for snakebite punctures, I would suggest a larger patch if you have to cover two close holes. Rema is the best brand of patch I have used. Self adhesive patches are great for an emergency, but don't hold nearly as well as these Rema glue-on patches. Just collect the bad ones in a box and patch them all at the same time.

The patches work very well especially for 700x23 tubes. Disappointed in the Seller, someone had removed two patches from the box and the shipping costs are out of line for the small package. Will source elsewhere.
