Thanks.  I wasn't upset that it didn't fix the flat, just picking your brain for info.

We were both skeptical of it working when he said he ripped the tube. And it sounded like a big leak, but it did seal up some and may have sealed more as he started riding - I didn't follow to see.

After thinking about it, I think I needed to limit the pressure and the flow of foam through the Presta valve. I just hit the button on the Fast Air like it was a CO2 inflator.  I think I need to modulate the button (and the pressure) more since the foam can't flow through valve as fast as CO2.
