About this deal

The biggest thing Lezyne had to show us was actually quite small, this simple little Tubeless Pro Plug. While they had plenty more new tools, a new travel floor pump that looked super functional, and even the neatest Airtag integration I’ve seen yet, it was the ability to easily and cheaply fix a tubeless tire for good that won me over. Lezyne Tubeless Pro Plugs fix damaged tires for good From one end you get a reamer/plug insertion needle tool and a small plastic spacer that holds the tiny stainless steel shiv micro knife to trim the excess plus after you are done – extra helpful for smooth rides on repaired road tubeless.

What happened? Goopiest feeling of the plugs and therefore hardest to thread into the tines. Includes two valve cores as well. The tubeless plug tool is encased in an aluminum body and threads onto the tool which pulls double duty as a chain breaker. It has space to store the included 5 repair strips and preload the fork tool with one as well. On its own, the plugger was pleasant and easy to use. Strips loaded into the fork easily, even when doubled up, and plugged punctures well, detaching from the fork to remain in the tire. If you find an item at a lower price with another commercial internet retailer, you will receive it from us at the same price, provided the conditions listed in the link are met.The granting of a best price is not combinable with other promotions (e.g. "free articles) from Bike-Discount. Always carry at least one tube. To be ultra safe or for longer trips, carry two. And as mentioned above, be sure to take extra care of it by storing it in a Ziploc bag. Gorilla Tape

Multi-taskers - Many of the best plugger tools we tested were built to do that one thing, while others are built into multi-tools or entire tool systems. Are you happy with your existing multi-tool or other elements of your flat kit? If not then consider these multi-taskers as a clever way to build out your tool arsenal. A tool that's hidden but always there. Granite's Stash Tire Plug seamlessly disappears in your handlebars or hollow axle crank, out of the way but there when you need it. With some breakage and the plastic head of the DART as a real struggle to insert, this tool might only be useful with large punctures. If you seem to tear sidewalls, or go big with punctures and need a way to get home, this might be the tool for you. The plug tool threads onto the tube for leverage, and the plastic spacer also helps not push the needle inserter too far in on a road tire so you don’t damage the inner tubeless rim tape. Although a dedicated valve core removal tool is best, the pliers on a Leatherman work. However, you might risk messing up the threads if you use a pump with a threaded head. The spoke wrench on your multitool may work to remove valve cores, too. If you lose your valve core tool… whittle one from wood! (see photo) High Volume PumpThe quality aluminium all-in-one kit comes with a reamer and fork, medium-sized strips and two different end caps so you can choose to fit the stash tool in your handlebars, steerer tube or hollow crank for a small weight addition of 35 grams. Roll a dozen or so winds around your pump. Gorilla tape can be used to help with a tire tear or to re-tape a rim, in addition to a ton of other miscellaneous uses around camp. Patch Kit High quality tire plugs aggressively seal holes that are too large to be sealed by sealant alone (hole size varies from tire to tire)

Having a color pop or color-coordinated bar end is also an appeal as these come in 12 color options. They are the most involved to fit into drop bars and also the slowest to remove. Utilizing the 4mm hex to get a comforting snug install also means you need the 4mm to get the tools out of the bar ends. It’s not a complicated ordeal, but potentially an issue of lost time and lost tire pressure and sealant. Essentially, outward tire pressure from inside the tire helps hold it in place, so as long as you don’t have a cut big enough to have damaged the casing construction of the tire, you should be good.The Tubeless Pro Plug has a wide mushroom cap that sits against the inside of your damaged tubeless tire and a long stem with a bit of a metal head to help push/pull it through the hole in the tire. The Tubeless Pro Plugs come in three sizes, with 2.5, 3.5 & 4.5mm diameter stems and corresponding small/medium/large caps. While they are sizes to fit various sized punctures, the big cap is said to be effective at repairing cuts too. At home or in your workshop, you glue to the inside of your tire (after cleaning it super well to get rid of sealant residue) using a special type of rubber cement that is included in the kit. And then trim off the excess when you are done. Super glue or shoe glue can help aid in the repair of a tire tear in the tread area or sidewall. You can even put glue around a plug for additional support, or on the adhesive side of tape and create an ultra strong bond. Spare Valve The Wolf Tooth Encase Chain + Tire Plug Multi-Tool is meant to be a multi-tasker, but it’s a clever one at that. Initially, the kit seemed too large to fit in the curve of a drop bar, however, once the design of the pivoting tool was placed correctly, the installation was consistently a breeze.

With the Lezyne Tubeless Kit you repair a hole in a mountain bike tyre that is too large for the sealant only. The casing is made of aluminum and also acts as a handle. The needle itself is made of durable steel and contains a reamer. This allows you to neatly smooth the hole in the mountain bike tyre before you plug it. Five plugs are included. In short, with this small piece of equipment you will soon be on the road again! The way the tool works restricts it to lower pressures, so we're talking about gravel tyres and mountain bike tyres. Above about 50psi I found that the CO2 managed to find its way out around the tool, so this isn't really one for smaller volume road tyres, unless you have something else to add pressure with once the tyre is sealed. Whatever I was using it for, as it's currently designed I'd feel that I needed another inflation option, be that a pump or a standard CO2 inflator, for peace of mind. Which defeats the object a bit: you may as well just get a normal tubeless plug kit. Below is our round-up of plug tools, our favorites as well as the ones that we tested but missed the mark. It seems to me that it'd be simple enough to have the reamer as a removable bit that you screwed into a standard inflator nozzle, so that if you just wanted to top up your tyre normally then that is an option too.On the other end you get a CO2 inflator, and inside are both small & large tire plugs. The entire setup nests together quite nicely, and won’t rattle around as you ride, also thanks to a small magnet that holds the shiv. A few weeks ago I got a nice brand new Maxxis enduro tire, and as tough as they usually are, I still managed to stab a hole in it literally on the first ride. Now, Lezyne has a way for me to pull out that ‘temporary’ trailside repair, and replace it with a more permanent solution that I won’t worry about creeping out over the life of the tire. If you’re flying with your bike, let most of the air out of the tires, as required by most airlines. Be sure not to completely deflate the tire though, to protect your rims, and minimise the chance of the bead unseating. When you box your bike, rotate the wheels to make sure the wheels are rotated so that the valves are at the top—this will prevent sealant from settling in the valve and clogging the core. If the seals get broken Engineered for road, mountain, or gravel bikes, the comprehensive Pro Tubeless Kit is the perfect all-in-one tubeless tire repair system.
