Now the information I was given from a technician is that only certain makes of tyre should not be repaired, but most are fine. In fact, if the tyre is repaired in the correct manner, the repair is stronger than the original. It's British Standards that say tyres shouldn't be repaired, but they're tarring all with the same brush. I've raced on a repaired tyre with no issues.
