I can't seem to find the tire patch kit that I usually carry on the bike. I have the Dyna pump but no kit. What patch kit do you carry with you on your bike?
Thanks

StopNGo.... Have a kit in every one of my vehicles.
Permanent plug mushroom design.

I made one of these kits for each of my bikes. Came in handy in Argentina. Contents fit inside an Altoids tin:
- A few tire strings
- A few patches
- Patch abrasion / sandpaper
- Rubber cement
- Slime reamer and puller hex bits
- Spare tire gauge
- Spare valve stem with valve core and core-remover style stem cap[‘li]
In my daily tool roll, I carry the Malco screwdriver handle that the reamer and puller attach to:

When you say "patch" do you really mean "plug" or do you mean internal tire patch for tubless tires. If its a "plug" for tubless Nealey tire plugs are bar none the best money can buy and fortunately it doesn't take a lot of money to buy a Nealey kit. If its an internal patch the patch brand patch is not as important as the preperation. Get any pull through type you can easily find.
I like the Nealey as it is a permenant fix and does not require any rubber cement. Push in, twist 1-1/2 times, pull out, cut off, done.

I carry the Dynaplug inflator and the plug kit on my tubeless tire bikes. If you need more than that, there's rope plugs sold at many gas stations or you've got tire damage that may be beyond a roadside repair. The "permanent" plugs I've seen require removing the tire to install from the inside.

I'll second the Nealey kit. I used to carry the plugger with the mushroom shaped plugs. After the misery of trying to get the air to stay in and finally sealing it up with the ropey stuff, I now travel with the Nealey.

Looks good. I have tube and tubeless bikes so I need some tube patches, too.

I use Slime in my tubed tires and can’t remember the last time a I had a flat tire. For the tubeless, I have some typical auto rope plugs which have never failed me and the reamer/installer plus a small bicycle hand pump. Longer trips with luggage I carry a Slime air pump.

Nealy is hands down the best for tubeless tires.
I have a kit with a portable air pump and everything needed. Goes with me no matter what I drive.

I carry a can of pressurised slime, along with a dog turd and glue kit and a small electric pump that goes up to 40psi no probs. The Breva has tubeless and no centre stand, so it will always be a "get you to the nearest shop that can do it properly" job.

Just be careful with tire sealants. Some of them will render the tire unpatchable from the inside and all of them will piss off the shop working on your tire. Most shops have a huge upcharge for working on tire that have had goop injectced into them. If you ever inject this magic in a can into a tire please be a decent human and tell the shop what you did prior to them working on the tire so they can be prepared to deal with the liquid inside the tire.

Stop and Go. Actually had it work for me. Slime air pump.
I carry the kit from vehicle to vehicle however. (3 bikes and 1 Corvette with run flats) (The other cars have spares- I think).
