 What it is

A “bacon strip / slug” tyre plug system that lets you seal punctures in tubeless tyres on the trail or roadside.

Instead of replacing a tube, you insert a rubber plug directly into the hole.


 Feature breakdown

 “Can pre-load two different sized slugs”

  • You can load plugs in advance so they’re ready instantly
  • Speeds up repairs when you’re out riding

 “Yellow C-clip prevents sticking”

  • Holds plugs in place before insertion
  • Stops them from getting stuck in the tool or caps
     Makes the system cleaner and easier to use

“Seals to keep dust and debris out”

  • The tool is designed to stay closed/protected
  • Prevents dirt from clogging the mechanism
     Important for reliability on dusty trails

 “Opening for Presta core removal”

  • Lets you remove a Presta valve core
  • Useful for:
    • Faster air release
    • Adding sealant
    • Seating tubeless tyres with airflow

 “Two needle widths”

  • Thin and thick insertion needles
  • Matches different plug sizes (small vs large punctures)

 “Includes 10 slugs (1.5mm & 3.5mm)”

  • These are the rubber repair strips
  • You insert them into the hole to block air loss
  • Different sizes for:
    • Small punctures (1.5mm)
    • Larger cuts (3.5mm)

 How it works (simple)

  1. Find puncture in tubeless tyre
  2. Insert plug using the needle tool
  3. Pull it halfway through the hole
  4. Trim excess rubber
  5. Pump tyre back up → sealant + plug seal it

 Pros

  • Fast roadside puncture repair
  • No need to remove tyre or install tube
  • Works well for thorn or small cut punctures
  • Compact and portable
  • Essential for tubeless riders

⚠️ Cons

  • Not suitable for large sidewall tears
  • Requires tubeless tyres (won’t work with inner tubes)
  • Needs some practice for clean insertion
  • Temporary fix in some severe cases

 Bottom line

This is a must-have emergency repair kit for tubeless cycling. It turns a ride-ending puncture into a 2–5 minute fix.

If you ride tubeless, this is one of the most important tools you can carry—more useful than most spare parts in a saddle bag.
