Most cyclists that I know aren't too thrilled with slime- gums up the valves, can spray everywhere, etc., but a guy we know who uses a wheelchair loves it and says he'll never go without again. I think that wheelchair wheels don't get as much air pressure as most road bike wheels - so maybe it does work better for wider / lower pressure tires? - plus he obviously doesn't go as fast as a bike so if there is a wobble in the wheel from the slime he wouldn't notice it.
