Park Tool TB-2 Emergency Tire Boot
The Park Tool TB-2 is a simple, ultra-compact emergency tire boot that reinforces large gashes or sidewall tears quickly and inexpensively, making it a go-to for bikepackers and commuters. Unlike tubeless plug systems in this list, the TB-2 is designed as an internal patch that works equally well with tubes or tubeless setups and offers a lower-cost, durable solution for damage too large for plugs. Financially it’s an economical hedge in any emergency kit compared with higher-priced precision plug tools.

Dynaplug Racer Pro Tubeless Tire Repair Kit
The Dynaplug Racer Pro is a market-leading, high-performance press-in tubeless repair system engineered for rapid, reliable roadside repairs and minimal weight — ideal for racers and serious cyclists. Its precision metal insertion tip and engineered plugs often produce longer-lasting, near-permanent seals compared to strip plugs from other brands, though it commands a premium price. In an emergency tire patch and boot kit it serves as the technical best-in-class for speed and permanence, while still pairing well with a Park Tool-style boot for large sidewall damage.
