tubeless. something like the plug that mesrine65 posted should do the trick. I prefer the mushroom plugs fit from the inside of the tyre, but it's not possible to do that at the side of the road

Have a google for
CAR VAN TYRE TIRE PUNCTURE REPAIR KIT WITH 10 STRIPS
Sold by Extreme Auto Accessories

on Amazon.co.uk

Cost me €10 including postage. Includes a carry pouch. You will have to pack a small tyre inflator/pump as well (have one from Aldi for the pushbike) as it doesn't have CO2 cylinders..

A good, cheap, small kit.
