cdomenici's Full Review: Bell Deluxe Patch It Tube Repair Kit
I have used the Bell Deluxe Patch It Tube Repair Kit and must say I am truly satisfied with the sheer amount of quality. Not only is this a dependable product but it is cheap and this happens to be important to a tight wad like myself.
Compact Even with a cheap price tag Bell manages to keep this product small and lite for the avid cyclist. I'm not really a weight weenie but its nice to be able to stuff some more junk in your wedge pack or camelbak.
Smart Design The design of the Bell Deluxe Patch It Tube Repair Kit is fairly impressive. The tire levers fit together to save space while making organization a snap. Letting the air out of your tires is easy with the little knob on the levers that will let air out. This kit has glue-less patches that simplify and quicken fixing a flat tire. To complete the kit it comes with a hard plastic case to protect what's inside. I have really liked being able to whip this kit out and fix a flat without thinking about what I'm doing.
Durable The patch kit with glue lasted me forever and this patch kit hasn't failed me yet. They are cheap enough that you think they wouldn't last all that long, but they seem to have a surprising effect on their owners. Bell really impresses me with how strong they make the tire levers. Also instead of giving you a wimpy piece of sand paper you get a fairly tough round metal abrasive scraper. The case that holds it all inside is tough enough to last through a fair amount of abuse. For example, I accidentally left my wedge pack unzipped and the repair kit fell out while I was flying down fast piece of single track and to my satisfaction the kit came out unharmed.
Dependable When you get a flat and you don't want to walk your bike off the mountain after a decent amount of climbing the Bell patch kit gets the job done. The tire levers help to get the tire off the rim quickly and without pinching your tube. The scuffing tool helps to smooth out the area for the patch and the patches work quickly and effectively. After you get done fixing your flat you'll feel like you could be pit man for the next Tour de France.
Inexpensive This may not be the most awesome repair kit but the cheapness makes it high up there on my list. Sure, its not as compact as some other repair kits but for the amount of quality this kit has to offer at such a cheap price who really cares. The Bell Deluxe Patch It Tube Repair Kit won't leave you high and dry. Fixing a flat tire will be easy enough with all the great features this kit has to offer.
