I recently purchased a Mini Mate

Question

I recently purchased a Mini Mate. Haven't pulled it yet. Someone suggested that I spray sealant in the tires. Opinions?at clamps to your frame,but it is mated to their trailer only,does anyone know of another frame mounted(clamped) hitch for your bike?

    I use Dynabeads in my motorcycle tires. Love them.

    Please let us know about how you like the mini mate after camping with it. I have been looking at those also

    The various spray in sealants are ok for a field expedient repair but they make a mess inside the tire and wheel. Most repair shops will charge you extra to change or repair a wheel it has been used in. I know what a mess it makes from using it myself. I also have a MiniMate. The chances of having a flat on your trailer is very low because of it’s weight. I would worry more about the tires on your "tug" vehical.

    Fix a flat and some others will melt the rubber inside the tire and ruin them. Use as a last resort

    I wouldn’t put sealer in the tires but I would give the tent canvas a good water treatment.

    I carry a spare and also have the Stop n Go plug kit and their mini compressor that I carry.These are the only plugs I trust.

    I don’t pull trailers but I use Ride On as a tire sealant and works perfect. Hope that works for you too. Amazon link Ride-On Motorcycle Tire Sealant-3 bottles https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00GA9XJ9Y/ref=cm_sw_r_other_awd_EEcDwbB1VHAK3

    I know what your saying larry but if your dump comes off its gonna bash up your truck not your body and a trailer behind a bike only weighs 350lbs and most time fiberglass and yes it could still do damage but could kill the rider if happened on the hwy

    I would not recommend it, if you can’t carry a spare, most motorcycle tire repair kits will work, might want to purchase a small 12v compressor.
