A tenner for a pair of handlebar mounted tools for tubeless punctures. Snazzy colours if you like that sort of thing.
Some other good things in the sale, like £6 valves, if you want to push it up to free shipping

Looks like £10 for a single one? Not bad I guess but not sure it’s worth much more - £40 RRP is fantasy land.
Nope it's £10 for both sides + 15 tubeless anchovies.
I bought a couple the other day, very nicely made, and a bargain at £10 imo.
Nice one ordered thanks I needed some end plugs anyway bargain 👍
I think I'd rather have the tubeless tool in a handier place so I don't need to use an extra tool to 3xtract it from a handlebar. Good place to store it but the extra faff of using them puts me off
Do many people us grips with removable end caps then, for these to be widely suitable? I thought most used single piece lock-ons.
I see the Granite Stash one can go inside a lock-on grip.
I happen to have open end grips on my hardtail, so these worked.
The other set will go on my gravel bike. They come with inserts to fit MTB and drop bars.
That's a great price, I bought a set of these when they were about 15-20. They're really well made, and I appreciate the extra safety of the allen key closure. I bought them to replace a Lezyne version that just "pushed tight" and had dropped out somewhere.
By the way, they also fit inside cranks if your grips are closed ended. Probably you'll only get it to fit on one side.
Do you reckon you could bodge them into a rubber ended grip somehow? I'd like to put a set onto another bike with closed grips...
Thanks for the PSA - ordered one for the xc bike and one for the gravel. Going to try some ODI vapor's on the xc bike as they were reduced to £10 at my lbs - my dreadlocks are a bit worn now anyway.

I've got some Granite versions fitted to bikes with DMR death grips.
I just carefully cut the end cap off the grips.
They're tapered at the ends to stop them turning.
Been fine like that for a couple of years.
And yes I know you can use the small end cap on the Granite but the last thing you need when fixing a puncture is to have to also take the grip off.
I have these and found the insertion needle a bit big for smaller holes to the extent it couldnt be pushed in..but a good tool nontheless
I certainly don't get enough punctures to worry about the convenience of them, but I mostly have single clamp grips with rubber ends and don't really wanna go chopping them up.
Will they fit in my gravel bars, I wonder?
The Granite one works well if you're happy to remove a grip as the end cap is very low profile, ZTTO also do a cheaper take on it but I had to file a tiny bit off the edges of the cap so a grip would fit over the top.
I've bought a set for my gravel bike. Been meaning to get a tubeless repair kit for that bike and also some expandable bars plugs as I keep knocking them off getting it out the garage....
That's a good PSA, thanks!
Good PSA, I think I’ll get order a set.
My deathgrips are about ready to be changed. The Vapor grips, how do they stay on?
@asbrooks im pretty sure these grips just push on after making them wet inside with isopropyl alcohol. This then evaporates and they say super stuck on.
