Ride On also sells "factory seconds". Same goop, but maybe the label is on upside down...
Costs much less than the normal stuff and is exactly the same inside the bottle.

I bought two 16 oz bottles.

I think the difference is just the amount of goop for CT's or MT's. I used an extra MT bottle in my CT.
It's kind of expensive, but picture a flat on a lonely country road, and you only hear birds and banjos...

Got a question on mounting the BattlAx. Some manufacturers recommend mounting a rear tire in reverse when used on the front. Does Bridgestone recommend mounting in reverse?

Thanks,

Bridgestone does not make recommendations on mounting a rear tire on the front. The Battleaxe says "for rear use only" on it.

There is some logic to mounting the tire backwards. I personally don't subscribe to it. I mount mine the way the tire says to mount it. It's a personal preference and I don't think it really matters one way or the other. Do it the way that makes sense to you.
