    I have a Schwalbe Ultremo HT Tubular tyre with some damage from contact with another riders tyre at speed. The attached picture shows the damage, no air leaks out of the damaged area so was wondering if anyone had any bright ideas how to make it safer for riding (I was thinking of having it as an emergency spare tyre on rides). Thanks.

    Bin it. Tyres are very important to motorbikes and cycles. You wouldn’t want a repair it to let go whilst cornering or travelling at high speed.
