Two USA-made CNC T-handles (reamer + needle), 10 GlueTread plugs, pliers and a razor. Ships free.

Or see kits that also fix sidewalls and valve stems

A plug fixes a hole.
Not a whole tire.

Tread punctures are only one of three ways a tire quits on the trail. Sidewall slices and torn valve stems don't take a plug. Pick the kit that covers what you'll actually run into.

Compare the three kits What the upgrade gets you

Tread puncture

Nail, screw, or sharp rock through the tread. The common one, and the one every kit here fixes with a plug.

Fix: plug · all three kits

Sidewall slice

Shale or a stick cuts the sidewall. A plug can't hold here. You need an external rubber patch and adhesive.

Fix: patch + glue · Complete, Expedition

Valve stem

A rock or branch tears the stem off the rim. The tire won't hold air no matter how good the rubber is.

Fix: Colby valve · Complete, Expedition

Three kits. One question: how far are you from help?

All three carry GlueTread plugs and CNC-machined aluminum T-handles. The difference is how many kinds of damage you can fix before you're calling for a tow.

Before you pick

Common questions

Why not just carry plugs?

Plugs are the right fix for a tread puncture. They can't seal a cut sidewall or a torn valve stem, and those are the failures that leave you stuck. The Complete and Expedition kits carry plugs plus the parts for both.

Do I have to take the tire off the rim?

No. Plugs and GlueTread external patches go on from the outside of the tire, and the Colby valve installs from the outside of the wheel. First-timers usually finish a valve swap in 1–3 minutes.

Which kit is street-legal?

The Power Plug Kit is on-road approved. The sidewall patches and valve repairs in the Complete and Expedition kits are for off-road use. Get the tire properly serviced once you're back on pavement.

Complete or Expedition?

Day trips and weekend rides: the Complete Kit. Multi-day overland trips, more than one rig, or anywhere a second failure would strand you: the Expedition Kit, with two valves, spare cores and the Cordura bag.

Will the Colby valve fit my wheel?

It fits most standard tubeless valve holes (0.453") on cars, trucks, SUVs, Jeeps, trailers, ATVs and UTVs. It doesn't fit Presta bike valves or heavy-duty 5/8" valve openings.

What if something goes wrong?

Every kit ships free and is covered by our 3-year limited warranty and 100% satisfaction guarantee.
