Dynaplug
Do you like these? They seem a really over-wrought solution with the metal tips hanging out in the tyre and then going in the bin, something for people afraid of threading a little strip into the fork thing. But if you like and use it I’d look again

I’ve wondered the exact same.
In what way are they so much better than the little bacon strips/jobby things pushed through the hole with the normal stabby thing?If they are actually functionally better I’d be into it, but is there any real benefit other than they just look cooler?
Edit fwiw I’ve never struggled with bacon strips, have sealed every hole I’ve had on mtb and gravel bike, there’s a bit of a nack to pulling out the tool without unseating the bacon strip tbf

I like them because they work. I've used the anchovies before and dynaplug is a lot easier/faster. Even if you're not racing, the faster you can plug the hole, the less sealant and air you lose so you're saving time and sealant.
If you're really concerned about waste, then recycle the plug tips when you send your tyre off to someone to make belts from.

I'd agree. I've thrown mine over a LOT of rocks and it's still only flatted once on the road in Scotland.
I flatted the front during 7S riding up hill! How the fuck? Dynaplug fixed it.
