Just clicked for my first tubeless set of hoops (Hunt-Mason CX's to go on a Kinesis Tripster AT). This will be not only my first bike with tubless, but also my first with discs, or 11 speed for that matter. Fortunately it does have a threaded BB so the Luddite in me is not completely perturbed.

What do you tubeless folk carry with you for roadside repair in the event that the sealant isn't doing the job. My current take on it is that one needs the following (which seems slightly excessive):
- tubeless levers
- CO2
- 'worms'
- mini-pump in case of multiple punctures
- tyre boot
- Something to remove the valve core with
- Spare tube in case it all goes wrong

no tube
no CO2 if you're already carrying a pump
no boot if you have a 5 quid note
add a little bottle of sealant
done

So if you get a catastrophic puncture which requires the boot, how do you get enough pressure in the tyre with just a mini pump? Don't you need a co2 or track pump to bed the tyre in?
