The Einsteins stick better and are smaller than the less expensive 'generic'
patches I've used.
Typically (that's without goatheads) an Einstein patch kit lasts me about a
year (~7k miles) using JB greens.

Aha! Should get some of those, but 10 for $5 (plus the other stuff, I

1. How many punctures have you gotten in one ride of no more than 50 miles?
2. How many patches have you counted on any one tube?
