I've got one, but my new bike has tubed tyres... so I get to buy a whole bunch of OTHER shit to carry around with me.

I haven't read the whole thread but thought that I'd put in my 2 cents anyway. You'd have to be an idiot not to take when when on tour (and may as well have one at all times anyway).
On the weekend on East Cape we had 2 punctures (2 different bikes). Both were easily fixed and got us safely all the way back to Palmy. I'm considering getting a little portable compressor too as you seem to only get so much pressure in the tyre from the little bottles.
What's the best kit for me to buy now that I no longer have a tubeless rear? The front is still tubeless
Was easier for the lads to throw a tube in than repair all the hole!!
Was heading back to Wanganui from Raetihi on sunday and got a flat 35km's out.Nearly shit myself until i realised what had happened but anyway pulled over to the road side and saw a self tapping screw in the front tyre.Had a Genuine Innovations co2 kit under the seat kindly left there by Hitcher and was back on the road in ten minutes.Absolutely brilliant piece of gear.Got the tyre inflated to around 35psi which got me back to Wanganui and pumped it to required pressure.If you run tubeless you got to have one of these kits under the seat period.
I got a Genuine Innovations Co2 kit also, used it for the first time yesterday after coming through the Forgotten Highway RR tyre shit it self big time x2 plugs later we where away stopped in Stratford pumped it up abit more had some lunch checked psi all good rode home which was another 250km have checked again this morning still hard, but will need a new tyre, piss me off though only put 1500km on buggered tyre

Hey guy can you tell me what pressure the co2s put in the tire
I reckon mine was about 30+ but not more than 35psi (front tyre and used two bottles).O'h....and one other thing. When you replace your Co2 bottles shop around.i just paid 14 bucks each for mine and then i see them somewhere else for 10 bucks 50 for 2.What a bastard

Any possible way to mend punctured tubed tyre on side of the road?
If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.
