With some repair kits for tubeless tyres, the metal mandrels used to press a rubber patch into the hole in the tyre to seal it are difficult to handle. With the new Puncture repair kit Cigar from Crankbrothers The reamer is attached to a cover with an internal thread into which a CO2 cartridge (optional) can be screwed. This turns the cartridge into a handy handle, making it easier to get the rubber piece into the tyre cover. The whole set can be fitted to the bottle cage eyelets and weighs 81 grams including holder, cartridge adapter and five patches. It is the size of a thick cigar butt (30 x 80 mm).
