Sahmurai Sword Tubeless Tyre Plugs

The Sahmurai Sword is the first cycle-specific option and is the brainchild of three-time Cape Epic winner and Team Bulls rider Stefan ‘Sahmurai’ Sahm. Tyre plugs were first used in car tyres – marathon racers have been known to carry small automotive kits with them, taped to their bikes. This is not considered the safest way to carry such sharp objects.

The Sahmurai Sword tubeless tyre plug kit provides a solution. It is made up of two components that are built into a pair of expanding bar plugs. These sit inside the bars to provide a much safer way to carry the kit. One plug hosts the reamer, which is used to open up the puncture, the other holds a plug fork to push the gummy worm through the hole.

The plug sits quite flush with the end of the bar, but there is enough of a roughened surface that you can unthread it from the bar by hand.

The plugs will work with any handlebar with an inside diameter of 17mm and up. They will not fit bars with reinforced rings for bar ends.

The weight of the whole kit is just 40 grams so it won’t slow you down!

Occasionally, without notice, manufacturers change product design and/or specifications.
