Joe’s No-Flats Super Sealant


SO GOOD
Joe’s is the cheapest sealant here but it does the job. It’s on the thinner side, which allows it to coat the inside of the tyre nicely but remain mobile enough to fill any holes.

It deals with sidewall punctures fairly swiftly as a result. Our testing involved puncturing the tyres with increasingly bigger screwdrivers, and the Super Sealant did manage to plug a hole made by our biggest 6mm tool. The seal broke once we pumped the tyre back up to 20psi though.

NO GOOD
Many of the holes that it plugs still leak slowly afterwards. You need to shake the bottle more vigorously than the others here to get the particles mixed in.

Price 27$ for 1l

COMMENCAL EL CAMINO 3

Commencal are going from strength to strength at the moment and they’ve taken their tough trail hardtail bang up to date with 650b wheels. With its skinny rims, crankset and fork, the El Camino certainly isn’t perfect and it’s the least hardcore bike here. The handling, smoothness, speed and all-round agility of the basic bike still make it a real blast for technical trail riding though, and it’s a great base for upgrading over time.
