Tubeless punctures that won't seal with sealant alone need a plug to fill the hole. Carrying a separate plug kit alongside your multi-tool works, but it's one more item rattling around in your saddle bag. Lezyne's RAP II 13 Tubeless integrates a tubeless needle and plug holder directly into the multi-tool body, combining tire repair capability with the hex and Torx bits you'd carry anyway. When a thorn or small puncture overwhelms your sealant, you have the repair tool already in hand without digging through your bag for a separate kit.

The tool selection covers the full range of modern bicycle fasteners. Seven hex sizes from 2mm through 8mm handle everything from tiny limit screws to crank bolts. Torx bits in T10, T25, and T30 address disc brake rotors, some stem faceplates, and the Torx-head bolts appearing on more components each year. Both Phillips and flathead screwdrivers round out the selection for derailleur adjustments and accessory mounts. The integrated tubeless needle works with standard bacon strip plugs to seal punctures that sealant can't handle on its own.

All tool bits are chrome vanadium steel with Lezyne's Black Anti-Corrosion coating. This harder alloy resists the rounding that renders softer steel bits useless, while the coating prevents rust when the tool lives in a bag exposed to sweat, rain, and road spray. The bits are longer than typical multi-tool designs, improving access to recessed bolts and providing better leverage on stubborn fasteners. CNC-machined aluminum side plates keep the construction light while providing comfortable grip surfaces during use.... Read More
