Works well on its own, using common sense

- Henze, 23 December, 2021

Only previous experience with 32mm race tyre (Conti 5000S TL). After a puncture, still got home with 2 bar (the seal did not want to hold more pressure). Then at home first experience with this tool: the hole is very tight and small (because it does seal at ~22 bar), so the first prop did not go with it and the tip did go into the tyre. No success, then. Good thing I was home. Then folded the prop a few times, put it on the hole and got the tip into the hole after all. So the supplied prop is of strong quality. Then put 6 bar in again without any problems. Drove another 500km with that, then opened the same hole on the way, took out the prop. Now, on the road, I managed to get a new prop in the same way (2 min work), pump it up (6 bar) and off again. :) Both times (at home and on the road) gave me a lot of confidence to continue with tubeless and to keep using this tool on the road, without biba. I think I will use race sealant next time to reduce the chance of having to get off the bike again in case of a puncture; preferably let the sealant do its job. :)

Pros & Cons

Also not too small that you lose it easily
Easy to carry
Enough room for extra stuffing
Keep using common sense
Too tight hole, the prop does not go with it

Handy to have

- Armand, 23 July, 2021

This product has a lot of 1 and 5 star reviews, I give it 4 because the product is not completely foolproof but ultimately works and is still a better solution than trying to get a tubeless tyre off the rim on the side of the road and reassembling it with an inner tube. For smaller holes that the sealant just won't hold, product is a bit tricky the first time. I needed 2 tries the first time because the filler came back out when retracting the tool, almost all 1 star reviews describe the same problem which happens mostly for smaller holes. The second attempt when I held the spring back when pulling it out succeeded and the road bike tyre now stays at a good pressure (6 bar).

Pros & Cons

It works, tyre stays on pressure
Reasonably simple if you know how
Small and light
Difficult to get into smaller holes
Expensive
Padding can come out when pulling back
Small learning curve
