I cringed when I got a shard of glass in a brand new Vittoria Corsa Pro with less than 50 miles on it. It's too expensive of a tire to just toss in the trash, and so I started looking for a way to repair it. The Lezyne Tubeless Pro Plugs look to be the answer. It was easy to apply and seems to seal well. The tire went on one of a second set of wheels I don't use in the winter, so I don't have real world time on the repaired tire yet. However, every time I've checked it, it's still holding pressure. We'll see in the Spring. Would I race on a plugged tire? Probably not, but I am hopeful it will be good enough to use as a training tire. The selection of sizes is nice.
I really like the utility of this bag, the way it opens wide with zippers makes it easy to stuff in and out. I am not impressed with the way the straps are attached though. Not sure whether the thread used is failing or the foam, but there needs to be some reinforcement with the strap attachment points. I will likely fix it myself, but this should not have happened. I typically carry an 18oz Nathan Speed Flask filled with Perpetuem on long days on the bike. This bag is very easy to use for this or an extra layer, vest or jacket.
Stainless steel construction is critical to having a multi-tool that doesn't rust, I keep this in my saddle bag and as much as I try to stay dry I get caught in the occasional downpour and usually don't bother drying everything out after my ride. Tools with just a coating on the bits will rust very quickly as I found out the hard way with about 4 different brands. I got the 7 bit version and it has everything you need for mid-ride adjustments, it is solidly built and again the fact that it hasn't started to corrode makes it a keeper. I use a Speedsleev saddle bag, which is awesome BTW, and even though it is supposed to be waterproof nylon humidity makes its way into it as there is no zipper to fully close it (its only downside IMO).
This is a pretty good light. I often bike before the sun rises, so the 1200 lumens is extremely helpful and shows wide and far enough. It wont last my entire ride (might last 2 hrs at 1200 on a good day), so as soon as the sun is up I switch it to another setting to preserve battery. It is pretty heavy so if I only need a light to be seen during the day I usually take a different one. I would prefer a mount that I can click it onto the bike, but the srap has held up quite well. I expected it to be stretched and not stay in place, but after a month of using it, it has held up well.
