It doesn't fit everything included without taking it apart. In order to ream a tire, the user must insert the entire metal portion into the tire. There is also no leverage, making it difficult to insert one of these into a tire. I wouldn't recommend it.

Very nicely made tool, constructed of nicely finished machined aluminum. Both ends of the tube are threaded, so the probe end, as well as the cap end can unscrew. The probe top is threaded on both sides, so you unscrew it from the tube, then turn it over, and screw the top into the tube to make a nice handle. The probe also has some nice rasp markings on the shaft, so you can push the probe through the hole your tire to rough up the edges before applying the plug. The plugs are soft, and come in two sizes, but I think they'd require sealant to plug the hole completely. I had a tire with a sidewall snakebite I tried it on, and I just dipped the plug in sealant before inserting it. Works really well, I just wish it had come with a cap that you could screw onto a handlebar end cap, so it could be stowed inside the handlebars. As-is, it's small enough not to take up much space in a tool bag, backpack, or even a pocket.

I like to minimize my bike bag as much as possible and this unit helps by keeping everything you need snug into this capsule. The kit includes several plugs and 2 different sizes, however not all can be cramped inside. The orange anodized aluminum finish and over all construction is very nice. It’s small enough that you run some 550 cord through the included loop and secure somewhere else. As you can see it’s a small unit and for reference I wear medium sized gloves. I have not tested the plugs yet but have fixed up enough tires to tell you they’ll perform well. I recommend this set up if you’re looking for a compact/lightweight set up.

It is a little heavy for a biking product, but its durable and everything you get fits into it as snuggly as possible. There is absolutely no excess room. Now, thinking about that, I don't fully understand why you need to carry around so many plugs, and 2 different sizes to boot. Personally, I think 2-3 of the large plugs would get me out of any situation I might find myself in. Tires stretch, and if I have to force 1 large plug into a small hole, well that just means I'm extra sure it's not coming out. The large plugs, when folded, are still smaller than the application tool, and a small razor to cut the ends would provide more benefit to keep the plug in than having 2 different sizes anyways. *Shrug*. Well, there you go. Good kit, but maybe keep 3/4 of the plugs at home to save weight, and find a small blade to store inside the capsule instead.

Very handy, compact tire plug solution. I have a few "full-size" kits for the car, and the handle for pushing into the tire is by far the worst part. Thankfully, the housing of this tool addresses that issue. I'm not sure how many fixes it will survive, but for bike, wheelchair, etc tires it should be strong enough.The included sticky plugs seem good, and I like that they are in two sizes. I couldn't fit everything into the housing easily, but putting half the plugs in worked well.
