I'd heard of this working, but having never seen it, I wasn't a believer. This weekend I was MADE a believer when 20 miles into a 35 mile epic, a buddy tore a nice gash in his tire. I was ready to expose this Sasquatch in the Freezer scam, once and for all. Surprisingly, it worked great.
When you replace your tube, fold a bill into thirds, and place between sidewall and tube. Any denomination works, we actually used a $20.... which reminds me I need to get that back from him.
It held up great. We rode the last 15 rocky miles with no problems. I've learned my lesson. Now I won't leave for a ride without a $1 folded up in my spare tube.
