Why not buy some slime. Touch wood it's fixed my puncture problem.

I went to a local country shop and the chap there recommended 'ride on lawn mower slime' !!!!

occasionally the tire goes a bit flat, and I have to pump it up, but I've never had a tire go completely flat since having it done ( over 4 years ago )

I had slime put in- no good, still got a puncture but was a year or so later. Not bothering again. I carry a bike pump in my buggy to get me home, and keep a spare inner tube at home for over-night repairs ready for next day.

Hubby put bmx bike tyres on my p & t, they are mega chunky and touch wood, not had a puncture in a year.

Brilliant.

I now have visions of a pushchair with 28" wheels fitted for rugged cross-country tyres. The 'monster truck' of all baby buggies. :clapping:

I'd be very impressed if she had a schoolie balanced on each stunt peg.
