Ultra seal are based in Budleigh Salterton. I have deliverd there before. I have heard very good things about the stuff but i have mixed emotions about it. Could you feel safe riding at what say a 130 mph with this stuff floating around inside your tyre but then again who starts to feel paronoid at a 130mph that a puncture could end it at any moment. 
Just don't really know.

Well some of it coats the tyre and goes solid, some of it stays liquid...
This results in total puncture prevention, but also helps to cool the inner of the tyre to prevent blow-outs due to "Hot-Spots" in the tyre...
At the end of the day, question for that should be, do you want a blowout at 130...
OR...
Do you want something that will keep the tyre tempature constant preventing a blowout in the first place, but also something that guards you from punctures???
At the end of the day, something is better than nothing, question is "what 'something' should I use?"
Slime is for kiddie bikes, Ultraseal is made to army spec, and if it's good enough for them, it's good enough for me

With that in mind "FURRY" i will now seriously consider my options. I feel you have proberly made my mind up. And the best bit about it is i feel discount could be a good place to start as i have offered such a good prompt service to them. Hopefully they are not listening.

ultraseal is only ok before you get the puncture
i had a new front and got a punchture 10 miles later
iv plugged it,but plugging feks up the wall
and is dodgey
Have you seen them put a plugg in? its butchery
iv found out the hard way,pay 20 odd quid for ultraseal and say yourself loads in the long run
