- Опубликовано: 18 окт 2024
- I sacrifice a perfectly good tire and inner tube to discover how well FlatOut tire sealant works. I puncture this tire with small nails, big nails, and more. Check out how it works

@@maximumchargeEV done.
And this is why you never let anyone with a RUclips channel borrow your stuff.
:D
I've been binging tire sealant videos for my car tires and finally this video sold me. FlatOut it is! Straight to the point and you showed me exactly what I needed to see!
Glad this video helped!
It literally says not used for passenger cars.
@@iconyxxx That's because of the risk of sealing the valve stem. I'll take that risk. Won't need it anymore if my tire never goes flat. And I could just replace it if it did.
I have been watching videos for flat out and slime, after watching this video I have decided to try this product. I have slime tubes installed on a couple of my bikes and so far have had no punctures.
But now I have an electric bike I want the added peace of mind.
Your video was great, explains everything well and shows real puncture tests. I've never before had a punture as large as that 3/8 drill bit made, so hopefully that luck will continue for me, I've been bicycling for 53 years so far.
Thank-you.
Hopefully flat-out will prevent flats for you forever!
Yes you should have filled the tire again and added more Flat Out. They recommend a specific amount. As far as the mess, when drilling a hole you are actually removing an entire plug of rubber and inner tube. This could never happen in real life. For a more accurate test you would want to drive a 1/4 and 3/8 diameter piece of steel in so that when pulled out the rubber comes back together. It's amazing that it can even plug the hole when removing a section of rubber. When sealing a puncture that comes back together there is no pamela anderson effect :D
It might have worked if it had more flat out in it. It probably was low from the last two drill holes so I bet it would have had a better chance with adding more flat out after the 1/4 in drill hole. But great stuff
Maybe!
Yes, Drill bits instead of nails. That shows the real power of the sealant. Impressive.
For all those pesky drill bits that are on the road!
My Flat tire moment, Ive notice when using flat out the tires get foamed up inside tire. The cool part as how I rode thru a serious pothole which bended the valve of a cut on the neck of valve, was 5 miles away from home of hearing the air come out but,, the lubricate inside tire kept my tire in form and not all the way flat flat of tire coming out of rim on most flat outs without flat out lubricate. I still was able to ride 5 miles with the tire still having the rim in place and very easy to ride home to change or patched up the cut. I now know when using Flat Out on my bikes, any puncture of tire going flat, it will still have form to ride home but at slow speeds, better than walking bike home due to tire coming out of rim which is not advisable to ride home on the rim. Great stuff and a MUST in all my bikes.
Been 2 years since using on all my ebikes with 2 moments that ended up on the Flat Out side of working. Twice with 2 different scenarios of tire going flat only to pump back up and still fine, the other being the latest of my valve neck getting cut by rim of a pothole ride thru but still had the form of tire to ride home without tire slipping out of the rim's edges.
yes definitely don't ride home on the rim! Glad you hear your success story with flatout!
The best torture test review of this stuff I've seen 👍👍 thanks
thanks! Might do another one sometime.
Most flats around 90% are small slow leaks, so it works great.
Great!
Yep my last 2 flats were so tiny but little glass shared take no Prisoners 🙄
I don't know how you tube knew. I just got a flat tire on my bike but this got recommended
RIP your tire! Sorry man.
You probably said something about it and your phone was listening 😅
Yo!!! Carnage, I didn't know you made a flat out video!! I just recently got a flat and I was going through the catalog videos when I saw yours this is dope
Hope you enjoyed it!
Hey do you have that in your back tie as well and are you running tubes or tubeless?
yes. I have tubes in both.
I'm pretty impressed with this test. Do you know if Flatout works with inner tubes? I realise it works better with Tubless, but I'm looking at this strictly from a "Get Me Home!" standpoint. Once I'm home I'll change the tube, I just don't want to be doing it on the side of the road. I've been using slime since they have a varient for inner tubes, but from what I've seen here Flatout may be better. I don't think I'll be running over any 3/8 drill bits, just want it to work with standard nails & thorns.
I hate to do this to you, but I'd love to see that 3/8 test again on a fully inflated tire and a fresh load of flatout (I'm guessing you lost quite a bit of the sealent in the previous tests). Liked and subscribed, this was a really good video.
Thanks! That test was actually done with an inner tube.
@@maximumchargeEV Oh wow, I had no idea it was that effective with inner tubes. Like I said I'm not looking for miracles, I just want to be able to get home and it looks like this will do it. Thanks for the great video.
This stuff is Flat Out fking bombproof. Apparent they use this on military vehicles... Seems to be a superior sealant and doesn't smell bad after awhile in t
Slime suck and stinks!!
Slime is only good for 2 years according to the company. Flat out is good for 10 years. I've thrown out my slime and moved on to flatout. All I carry now is a small air pump should I lose pressure before the Flatout seals the tire. $20 buys allot of piece of mind .
I hit a nail about 3in thick and the tannus armor actually helped! All the other times it didnt do shit so i was super happy. The nail was bent so it wasnt all the way through but still was very impressed. Unfortunately it hasnt worked any other flat ive had about 4 flats total and want to try something else! This looks great and shoot the chit uses it too so it must be decent!
Now, I have Tannus. I've heard yes and no to add Flat-out or Slime with the liners. Thoughts?
from what I've seen Flatout is superior.
Nice review. Think how much money coulda save years ago. If I found this stuff. buying slime and anti puncture tires. Hope it's good against glass to. That's the main problem in my city.💯
Do you have inner tube? or is the tire tubeless?
Inner tube
Great video!! For some reason, i got 2 flats within the past month. Both times i had slime in my rear tire and it didn't help much. 1st time it was a key that made the flat 2nd time (today) it was a drywall screw. Gonna try flatout and hope it works better. I may try tannus armor but really don't want to shell out $111.
Damn! Sorry to hear that. Hopefully flatout helps!
Great video...Great use of power tools...😂😅
Thanks Bruce! Always good to see you in the comments
thanks for doing this mate…good stuff…how much ounce you did pour in the tube? 26i inch tire
For this size of tire you need 16 ounces per tire.
It's a 26x4 inch tire and I put half the bottle into it.
Thank you guys.. i had 26x4 tire so one bottle of Flatout will do both tires….
@@baddriversofcolga thanks…if is 20x3 tire 8 ounces per tire?
A simple "puncture" from any sized object (thorn, fishhook, nail, screw, bolt, etc) is totally different from actual drilling...removal of the tire rubber itself. Definitely the real "stress" test.
thanks!
A simple "puncture" is a lot more benign than this!
@@chaxologist2024 we go all out!
@@maximumchargeEV This is a perfect benchmark for testing! Already bought spare, tubeless tires for my soon to be new Apollo Go scooter and I intend to use FlatOut in them when the original tires give out!
Cool testing, glad you mentioned its effectiveness, or time to seal being better if in motion 4:00
yeah I could have done this test better, rotated the tire more, and pumped up the tire after each test.
@@maximumchargeEV I wouldnt say that, I mean as long as mentioned its meant to set when in motion (which you did), then I think you did a great job of showing us how it fills in the hole (pretty awesome really). I know Im definitely getting some now!
Looked more like a scene from a Stormy Daniel movie, lol. Actually, that is really good stuff, I swear by it.
I recently purchased an e-bike and it looks like this stuff should seal just about any puncture I am likely to get.
I figure most of my flats on my cruiser bike probably come from running over broken glass in parking lots
this seems to be the best product on the market right now for sealing up holes!
One thing you don't report on is do you get a lot rougher bumpier ride with FlatOut ? If the tires don't give there's no cushioning.
Ride feels the same
How is putting a new tire on with all that crap inside the tire? Does it make it sticky and what when you have to get a new tire?
nah it was ok.
@maximumchargeEV awesome thanks man. Schoot the chit put me on to your channel and you both are awesome reviewers and i bought a ecells because of you guys so thank you.
@@ralexking thanks for the support! Hope you are enjoying the bike!
@maximumchargeEV I actually dont have a set day for delivery yet, I ordered the dual star matte black as is so im hoping ill get it delivered relatively soon once I do id love to try to do a review of it as well thanks again.
"A scene from a Pamela Anderson movie!" hahahaha...More like "Drooooooppin loads!" hahaha...great video. I'm torn between the two sealants.
And don’t forget “a really big hole”
Great test, thanks! Id like to see a test by running over a janky wood screw.
scene from pamela anderson movie,😅 now i ve got to watch that movie😅
haha cheers
I have Mr.Tuffy tire liners on my Fat tire ebike and after 4 flats from screws & nails I'm ready to try flat out.
why not both?
So no kidding the Mr Tuffy tire liners were completely ineffective?
Get tannus armour inserts also
If you deflate the tube by pushing in the valve core (something you would need to do to replace the tire), will the flatout start squirting out of the valve?
nope!
Thank you for making this video even though I admit it made me sick seeing you deliberately puncture the tire. LOL
Your welcome! Haha
Flat Out does make a mess, right? i've been thinking about Flat Out or Tanus Linners
not really messy unless the tire explodes everywhere
@@maximumchargeEV Got it. do you think the Tanus is as good as the Flat Out?
Get both, I use both, I also put Scooter tires on one ebike
I have the same tires and they keep going flat from pin holes , I did tire liners and now slime , Choa yang baby! Guys upgrade to some Kenda tires or something better. i like the Makita inflator!
How much should I put in the tire?
there should be "dosage" instructions on the website.
Pamela Anderson movie …lmao
😄
We can't get this in the UK
No way. Any idea why?
Well, it work on a 20 x Ebike tire with the cracked rim, it’s where the two pieces come together and electronically fuse. I’ve developed a hairline crack now my tire leaks.
Better then Slime?
There's another video area 13 bikes did comparing slime to this and this did better.
T H A N K S for the sacrifice, great video. Keep that away from your dog for fear of the same effect ...
haha! of course! Thanks for watching!
Seen from a Pamela Anderson movie 😅😅😅😅
Scene
Dude! In the real world, not only would the tire be rolling, but the weight of your body and the bike would be bearing down on it!
yeah that's true This test could have been better.
LoL I’ve tried 2 other sealants that hasn’t worked for my car. Hopefully 3rd times the charm using this!
Does this liquid slow you down?
I couldn't tell a difference.
Dose it work on tube less tires.
Yes, either or.
Whats the cost this product vs carry a new tire and change it out on the trail? 0r have a good patch kit which most ppl likely would struggle to do unless they are mechanically inclined.
I do both
Just wanted to add a comment that might help others when they get an ebike flat . First rest assured you eventually you will get one. Knowing in advance how to handle the situation will help you stay calm & prevent you from damaging your bike. First when you get a flat do not try to walk it to a convenient place to repair it; this will damage the tire & worse cause permanent damage to the rim. Park & lock the bike as close to where the flat occurred. If you have your cell phone with you call for assistance ; if not walk to the nearest place where you can get help. Go back home get your truck or car go back where you locked the bike bring it home & repair it or take it to a shop to repair it for you.
Or you could always carry a patch kit, just fix the flat and keep going. I remember feeling a bit intimidated about fixing a flat on my first fat tire e-bike, especially the rear one. Turns out, it's pretty easy, and you don't even need to remove the tire. I firmly believe that if you're going to ride an e-bike, it's a good idea to learn these basic skills. That said, I do use Flat Out in my tires now simply because fixing flats all the time can get tiresome!
@@Freedom_eRiderthey even have small hand sized electric air pumps you don't even gotta carry a full pump and struggle anymore like we did as kids 😅
Or prevent the hassle of calling for assistance and ride it much more towards a preferred bike shop thanks to the effectiveness of FlatOut!
Prevention i the best solution! Saves all the money spent on Uber!
All i need it for is little puncture weeds
seems like it would work well for that
Nice 🚴
thanks!
This is my 1st exposure to this product so please correct any inaccuracies but if I understand this, it remains in liquid state, only to solidify around a leak...a scab of sorts, lol. 1 of the benefits of the green goo it's that when correctly applied, it gives an even coat. Given this, how does a constant liquid affect tire balance? Without a correction for this consideration, any motorized vehicles w this should be banned from freeways!
I'm not sure about what you're saying, but a small hole filled with a solidified flatout clump has a negligible amount of weight and will barely effect wheel balance.
@@maximumchargeEV he's saying liquid moving around in a moving tire is dangerous. Other brands like Ride On sealants actually grip around the inner tire and actually "balance" the tire and make riding safe. If this sealant swooshes around inside the tire, at fast speeds your tire will start to wobble.
You should be wearing safety glasses just in case stuff sprays into your eyes 👀👁️👀👀👀😢
It's okay, I do the safety squint
@@maximumchargeEV Love it
@@FrameGame1 thanks!
I don't know what's up with all these people getting all these flats, I think at some point you just need to watch where you're going.
Lol that would help
try that in Phoenix - there are tire eating tree branches in the street you don't see at speed and thorns everywhere
Same thing here but in Perth (Western Australia). Riding a bike here kinda sucks because of all the random thorn bushes that you don't see until you ride right over them that are growing right in the street or in parts of the road/footpath (you call it a sidewalk there I believe).@@jnb756
Keep in mind if its spinning like it would be while riding it does seal as fast as possible. Best bet if you dont trust this is a laser beam in front of the bike to vaporize all matter as you ride but we don't have that tech available to the public at an affordable price yet, come back to this comment in 37 years.
See you In 37 years

Should have used soapy water
HOW BIG IS YOUR FAT TIRE? HOW MANY OZ OF FLAT OUT DID YOU PUMP IN THE TUBE TO BEGIN WITH?
26x4. It says how much to use on their site
AHHHHHH WHY YOU YELLINGGGG 🫨

😄😄
The likelihood of running over a drill is 0% 😂
And I'm one of that "0%"!
Went through an unfamiliar road in a relatively industrialized zone and a small drill punctured my scooter tire on the side of the road!
Thankfully, the tubeless tire sealed itself and the pre-installed sealant did the trick!
tried it USELESS!!!
Really? What happened?
@@maximumchargeEV finishing nail. had good luck with slime
BS
wrong
I was using Slime but I stopped using it for electric scooter tubeless. I was told to use Armadilloz which it’s recommended and I was using LiquiTube and I need to get this one
I just bought the off road version (Lightning strike) of F.O. for my e scooter wheels after numerous video testimonials like yours. 🤝🫵
Right on!
