Slime or Kevlar?

I think you’ll need the Infinity or Nimbus flavor of the armadillo to get a tire size that wide.

I’ve used Stan’s sealant for a while. I honestly can’t attest to its effectiveness, though. I haven’t had a flat that I can remember in over a year. I usually remember those things.

I’ve had good luck with the Nimbus in 35 so far. Zero flats. I did have a manufacturing deflect in one, and I had to limp home with a bulge in the tire, but it didn’t go flat, and Specialized customer service replaced it with no charge or delay.

I would avoid Slime like the plague, it DOES clog up leaks, but you’ll be riding on a 10-20 psi tire.

I have a slime tube – no flat yet, but the slime clogs up the valve, making it hard to open. Had to use pliers once.
