Yea, this isn't that nasty slime or flat fix junk. The Ride On is a gel that distributes itself in the tire/tube. I've cut my tubes open when I've changed out my Night Dragons and the Ride On was evenly coating the tubes and showed no signs of breaking down.

Many people on the forum are now using it, the ride is the smoothest ride you can get, and the added puncture protection is always welcome. I've never tested the effectiveness of Ride On when it comes to puncture protection (yet

) but cvaria has, and I'm glad he was using it!

The old style slime would definitely **** off your tire guy, but the newer stuff is much better. You can also use dyna beads, no mess but no puncture protection either. I use dyna beads, bike is super smooth.
