comment how to repair large holes in inner tubes
You shouldn't have a problem with normal Rema patches covering a 3-mm cut. This sounds like an error applying the patch. The thickness of the patch isn't an issue (patches are already thicker and tougher than innertubes).

comment Why don't road bikes have disc brakes?
No pictures, but this article suggests that Dura Ace will be available with discs: bikeradar.com/news/article/… -- which means they'll probably trickle down to Ultegra and perhaps 105 someday.

comment I keep getting flats
Right. And in those situations where you can't lay your hands on a basin of water or soap, I've found that the best way to find a subtle leak is to inflate the tube and rotate the tire around until I get the leak to expel air onto my lips--they're more sensitive than anything else, and will pick up jets of air you'd otherwise miss.

And derailleur. It's a more expensive option.
