    If I should puncture my tubeless set up in the wild I will be stuffed as they are so tight.
    So which levers please , remember nothing that won’t fit in a saddle bag.

    Pedros Tyre levers. Strong and come in funky colours to compliment your ensemble.

    Put some Stans Fluid in the tyre now.
    Tubeless without it will puncture just like a tubed set-up.
    Friends in France went tubeless years ago because of the thorns rather than the weight issue but use the fluid with non-UST tyres.
    It just works, plain and simple.
    Every 6-9 months put some more fluid in and ride.

    They carry one spare tube, pump and a couple of levers (probably Park Blue) between them as well as a can of instant sealant (often on offer for €4 at Lidl/Aldi) for all-day adventures.

    pedros levers here as well. Have snapped plenty others but so far these are holding up well.

    Pink Pedro’s, thats me!. Holding up well here too though some tyre and rim combo’s have needed the big metal tyre levers… Blue Park ones have been more brittle and broken with TL fitting.

    I reckon the ease of fitting TL depends on the depth of the centre part of the rim as it creates some workable space if the tyre bead is pushed into it… Shallower rim centres have been tougher… (if that makes sense)…

    Best tyre lever around, I carry 2 about. Also good for pushing the pistons back when you’re replacing brake pads. 😀 No idea how big your saddle bag is mind you..

    Pedros are good. Lezyne Powerlevers are better.

    Another vote for Pedros. I’ve broken every other kind I’ve tried (mainly on road tyres TBH)

    Park tool make excellent levers. Strong but soft …. A little like Andrex

    Pedros – only real question is “what colour?”

    Orange myself.
