Default Ride On or Slime tire sealant

Has anybody used both? Any feedback would be great.

I have used both. Ride On is less harsh on aluminum wheels. I use it in our side-by-side. Ride On also seems to be easier to clean up at tire change time.

I prefer Stans sealant. Less messy and works great.

I use slime with tubliss (and previously with tubes) and it does work, but have heard that stans is better - apparently slime is water based so when you ride in the wet you may dissolve the plug it has created in the tire, also the fibres in the tubliss tend to ball up over time

Also I just put new tires and tubes on myself and do not want to do that job again any time soon. I ride in Wisconsin and Minnesota and I am not a extreme rider, I'm just looking for some reassurance agains flats, I also read that ride on balances the tire. Does Slime do the same or the other product that has been mentioned?

I think you are rolling the dice when using a bib mousse at highway speeds. But then again, what is the worst that could happen?

That looks like a bait casting reel after I'm done with it.
