Stan’s Original DART Tubeless Tire Repair Tool
Compact tubeless tire repair tool designed to permanently repair larger punctures and cuts that sealant alone cannot handle.
The Stan's Original DART (Dual Action Repair for Tubeless) Tool provides a fast and reliable solution for repairing larger tubeless tire punctures on road, gravel, mountain, and e-bike tires. Unlike traditional tire plugs that rely solely on mechanical sealing, the DART system combines a physical anchor with a chemical reaction that works directly with Stan's latex-based sealant to create an airtight repair.
Its compact size makes it easy to carry in jersey pockets, saddle bags, frame storage compartments, and ride kits, while the integrated valve core remover adds additional roadside utility.
