These were a bit of a challenge to use on GP 5000, but great the few times I've needed them in my gravel tires, Challenge Getaway in 40.
Have been using it with stans sealant. Finally had chance to use it during a gravel ride and it stopped a ~2mm side wall hole to get me back home. Recommended!
I use these for both road and gravel tires. I was a little leery using them on road tires but they work and are for the most part unnoticeable. They are much faster than removing the tire and trying to install a tube or a boot. The only caveat is, twist the barb in, don't rock it back and forth. Rocking it is how you break it off.

Used once on a puncture too big to self-seal. Worked perfectly although it took some strength to work the plug into the tight puncture hole.
These darts are expensive but quite effective! I was able to save a racing tire that had a big puncture and that the usual bacon strip couldn't do the job.

Great deal. Dart fabric bonds quickly with the sealant and stops leaks. I wish the dart tool was a bit more sturdy but these refills are a great value and really ease my mind on longer rides.
Easiest plug I've ever used. Works great!
