Peaty's Holeshot Biofibre Tubeless Sealant - Best Sealant I've Ever Tested!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- Peaty's asked me to test their latest Holeshot Biofibre tubeless sealant as thoroughly as possible. After a ton of riding in all sorts of tires and a load of lab stabbing I can honestly say - and show - it's the best I've ever used.

On the basis of this I bought some. Can't actually say I'm that impressed. After a puncture on Sunday's ride my tyre was still bubbling out fluid and spraying it everywhere last night. I'm not quite convinced this is a miracle solution and I may well be going back to Stans.
I'm having this issue. Every ride I have to clean my bike from the Peatys sealant spray. Is it the sealant?
@@nrhoofcare7724 It's crap, don't believe the hype, you are better off putting condensed milk in your tyres... at least you will be able to wash your bike.
@@fuckinellitsraymo Orange Seal fixed it all!
Same here, you may as well buy some milk and mix it with porridge oats. It doesn't solidify. The test in this video is pointless, even though puncture seals at first, as soon as you roll over it again, sealant sprays again. There is no way this can seal anything bigger than small 1 - 2mm holes. Even if you leave it out, for days, it won't solidify.
seems like a rebranded muc-off product
I hope it's improved, sounds like it is. The original Peaty's sealant was probably the worst I've ever used.
According to my tests it was about 5th worst (out of 19), but then some of the roadie ones may as well be UHT milk.
Your channel is bang on Guy...honest, straight to the point and you know the feedback is based on years of experience and testing. Can't wait to see your subscription numbers go up and up, your certainly deserve it, cheers.
Cheers David, really appreciate that.
Very very impressive, buying when my current sealant runs out.
honest and to the point! I'm sold!
Thanks Guy for the good news! Peaty's seem to go big and produce things stronger and better. An example is their carbon paste, I had a slipping seat post (a problem with a certain cycle brand), someone recommended it and their paste was noticeably grittier and stronger, if fixed it instantly and when you touched it, it was clearly a lot meatier than the supplied brand. Not surprised to see they've come up with good tubeless sealant. A side by side test with stans or similar using the same screwdrivers would be good to see. Keep up the good work many thanks
Think I’ll be swapping my sealant after seeing this 👍🏻
Update to this. In the last six weeks since buying this, the new improved Peatys sealant I have to say it couldnt seal a pin prick. I've had three rear wheel punctures with them all spraying the White gunk over my arse, dropper post, frame and rucksack and it's murder to clean off. The holes were roughly 1mm - 2mm and they wouldn't stop spewing out even when stationary. I've had to put a plug in the tyre in all cases.
Sorry Guy but your testing method and result are at odds with my findings. No way will this ever plug 6mm holes Holes when you are on a ride.... Its shite.
Hi mate, what do you use instead of peatys? I was buying into the peatys marketing hype until I actually started reading first hand accounts now I'm tempted to just use stans for when I go tubeless
@@areyouoffit Orange seal.
I'm having to clean my bike every ride. Pin pricks bubbling all over my tyre. Is it Peatys? So sick of cleaning it off my bike.
Following some of the other reviews here, I have to wonder what testing was done on very small holes. I've just come off a ride in which I had a nick around 1mm length right in the centre tread on a 28mm tyre running 60psi. On the plus side, I was able to complete a further 30 miles or so without stopping - however, the seal blew out every minute or so and has still failed to seal overnight with the hole at the bottom. Perhaps the hole's not big enough for the sealant and its fibres to rush fast enough to plug it? It's all very well testing 2mm and larger, but if it cannot seal ~1mm effectively, it can't really be advertised as suitable for road.
Definitely the best sealant , can seal up to 7mm holes in tyre.
I've been swapping tyres pretty much year round. I've always tried to find the best sealant out there and something easy to clean. I've tested Stans, Muc-Off and Effetto Mariposa cafelatex. The only sealant that hasn't let me down is Stans for best sealing ability. Efetto is also good but it gets dry really quickly (less than a month) and also is a huge pain to clean. I know that ammonia is not the best option. As far as muc-off goes, it's by far the most useless sealan't i've ever tested. It cant even plug a 0.5mm hole. The only thing that it does is that it slows down the leak by a little. Eventually using muc-off I've cased two tyres because I was losing pressure by not even knowing it. Stans has plugged a little tree brunch and I was able to get back home without adding any air. Overall I will never change stan's for anything else.
Peaty’s is the only sealant I’ve fount that comes close to Orange Seal. I won’t sell anything else to my customers.
This new stuff is a whole level better 👌🏻
Wont be shopping there then.
My mate says muc off is amazing but i got a really small glass in my tyre to day, i plugged it, more sealant and it lasted about 50m on the towpath on my gravel bike. I'm considering peatys as i'm getting peatys valves because the shop put me crap things in. but i do have gorilla rim tape which is apparently good. not sure if to go with muc off again or peatys but i have muc off in now with a tube to get me home haha
I was disappointed last week in the middle of France I had three punctures simultaneously.
2 sealed one just poured out Peatys didn't seal all were tiny.
Eventually ended up using Muc off Bam
I used Silca before and that is just as rubbish
Looks awesome but how does it manage to be environmentally friendly but still have glitter in it? Did I miss something, is the glitter compostable or something?
From the Peatys website: “WAIT, IS THAT PLASTIC GLITTER?!
Hell no! No micro-plastics or microfibres here… The platelets in our sealant are BioGlitter made from a special form of cellulose from hardwoods, primarily eucalyptus sourced from responsibly managed and certified plantations operating to PEFC™️ www.pefc.org standards. They work like platelets in your blood, building up behind holes to help our fast acting sealant form an even stronger bond with the rubber in your tyre.” www.discoverbioglitter.com/
What about putting it in an innertube....!!
I'm sold
Thanks Guy, from which production date we can be sure that the sealant is the new formula? There is a lot of it in one of chain shops in Poland, and I am just curious did someone just stick a 'New formula' sticker - or is it this newer one? I really give kudos to Peaty's team, this is how all things should have been done, how this progress should be made. I wish they could use this time to actually tell the long story behind what they needed to do and how long it took them. That would be 20 min YT vid that I would really really want to watch as a documentary film. Yes, that can be interesting. Yes, that also could be great marketing power to show how long it takes to get things straightened-out.
Hey Michal, thanks for your comment. Anything that's in the new packaging will be the new mix. The full back story is here 👍. peatys.co.uk/blogs/peatys-tech-blog/how-we-made-the-best-tubeless-tyre-sealant-in-the-world
Hi Guy
As always very informative vid,
I’m just about to go tubeless and will grab myself some of this sealant. I was just wondering what sort of mm measurements you are using for 24”,27.5” and 29”. Might as well do the whole family’s MTBs in this stuff !!!
Thanks again
Lee
120mm does a big 29er tyre
Thanks Guy
What mm size tape would you recommend for a 30mm internal width wheel pls
Thanks again
Lee
Fair play! Appreciate calling out shit stuff when it’s shit. Obviously put some time into it, I will be picking a bottle up.
Hey does it really work well for you? Two punctures and not even with a dart it is cealing😢
Guy, Applogies for the crosspost bu I was wondering if you could help me.
Hello, I just placed an order for for a 295 after watching your video, I'm very excited. I was wondering what tune you got for the after market RockShox and Fox socks you've been testing?
Thanks Again
- Nick
Ey up Nick, I went for light rebound and light compression in the new Super Deluxe and I’m 70kg. I’d possibly go for medium compression if you’re much heavier than that.
@@GuyKesTV Thank you so much for getting back to me. I'll look into medium compression as I'm 85kg. It feels like light rebound should still work?
@@NickShepherd1983 yes but double check with Adrian at Pace as he’s obviously the expert!
@@GuyKesTV And I'll let him know it was your videos that made me pull the trigger on the frame.
@@NickShepherd1983 thanks chief 👍🏻
Can you put in a tubeless set up that’s got mucoff in or do you need to clean the old stuff out first? Mucoff ain’t all that 🤦🏼♂️
What's it like with a road tyre?
Found with Stan's a road tyre will hold 60 psi and puncture and seal at 30psi.
Will get me home but will this hold more pressure?
It’s held 65 fine in thorn holes or plugged holes on 30mm Conti tubeless. Did a good job of stopping lightweight Vittoria leaking too.
How would you compare it to Joe's Super Sealant (not Podium) ?
Hey, curious...are you able to mix the biofiber w/ peaty's regular sealant?
Yes absolutely, they're the same base, just with different inclusions. The OG one is pretty shit though 🤣
Will it work with a stans dart?
I'd assume not as the DART chemically bonds to Stans Sealant. Also, if the new Peaty's Sealant can seal a 7.5mm hole, do you even need the DART?
Looks like it isn't in the US yet?
Can you put this through a valve or even the new Reserve Fillmore or 76 Projects valves?
Yep, used it with both those valves with no problem. It's always quicker slopping it in through an unpeeled bead though.
@@GuyKesTV It is but I find the re-seating procedure a right pain in the arse! Is it best to re-seat with the wheel on it's side?
How long does the sealant last before it needs topping up?
It will last very long, as it doesn't solidify. It won't help with punctures though :-). Small punctures will be ok, anything bigger than 2mm your sealant will leak out :-( This is waste of money.
How long does it last, ie how long before you need to add more?
Depends on how many holes you get I suppose but I’ve got tyres that have had it in since last autumn and it’s still working fine.
@@GuyKesTV What I mean is if you dont have any punctures the traditional stuff would eventually degrade and go hard seem to remember being advised to top up every 3 months (lasted longer), does it behave similarly or is it still working after a prolonged period?
I used this yesterday when setting up the bike as tubeless. It was unable to seal a small hole above the bead. I did use soapy water in the tyre as fitted the cushcore pro. I'm thinking the soapy water has possibly affected it??
It might have done as it's water based. How much water did you use?
@@GuyKesTV not much, just sprayed some soapy water to help with the cushcore. I did though clean the tyre the night before and I'm sure there was a little bit of water left over. It did after 2 days seal, is losing some air pressure on small rides and totally failed on a longer ride Sunday, so guessing the hole might be too much for the sealant. Since added more sealant and is holding pressure again. Might try and seal hole with a bit of gorilla tape before spending £60-70 on a tyre
Yep... Bin it, it's crap. Guy has made a cock up with this one. Remember these guys get paid to promote stuff even if it's shite.
If it ist new, how could you know this.
This is very misleading video. You may as well buy some milk and mix it with porridge oats. Peaty's doesn't solidify. The test in this video is pointless, even though puncture seals at first, as soon as you roll over it again, sealant sprays again. There is no way this can seal anything bigger than 1 - 2mm holes. Even if you leave it out, for days, it won't solidify.
If you get puncture, it will slow air leak, but you'll end up with the sealant on your back!!!
I have bought 5L of this crap, based on this video and it is useless, an absolute joke!
For reference:
Road bike 28/30 tyres at 55 Psi - it doesn't work at all
Gravel bike 47/50 tyres at 27 Psi - it slows air leak, but it doesn't seal
MTB bike 2.5 inch tyres at 15/17 Psi - it slows air leak, but it doesn't seal
It woudl not recommend that to anyone. This product is almost as bad as OKO Magic milk.
That doesn’t sound right at all Pav. Get in touch with Peatys and let them know
