Hello,
Thought that this might be better here rather than workshop, as tourers may have had a bit more practice fixing a flat in the middle of a field miles from anyware

As the title says, looking for recommendations as to the type of puncture repair kits or methods
It's for tubeless tyres, just want to be ready for the inevitable

Cheers

The rema "tip-top" figure of eight stab through bung kit.

Rated to 50mph for 200 miles. Tested by yours personally to 157mph and 4,000 miles (with two bungs in the same tyre).

The air cannisters put only just enough air in to run on to the next filling station, after that, carry on as normal.

EDIT: There is a bit of plastic mesh in the kit. It's for going over the air cylinders. If you discharge one without the mesh over it, it will freeze to your fingers resulting in third degree burn.
