Shred Zeppelin is a Tubeless Plug, Valve Core Tool and CO2 Cartridge Regulator in 1
PRESS RELEASE: Lyne Components
Tubeless tyre technology is arguably one of the most significant improvements to mountain biking over the past years. Although this technology is a massive improvement there is a good chance you have had a ride ruined by a tubeless tyre failure and not having the right tools on hand to fix it. This is why we developed the Shred Zeppelin tubeless repair tool.
Tubeless repair solutions in the past have been somewhat unrefined and required many separate parts to create a complete kit. Our goal was to design an all-in-one solution that would integrate all the required tools and could also be attached to the bike. The Shred Zeppelin has the same silhouette as a CO2 canister and is compatible with CO2 brackets and includes a tubeless plug applicator, tubeless plug storage, CO2 regulator and a valve core remover.
Tubeless Plug Applicator and Storage
If you unscrew the threaded end of the tool and thread it into the CO2 regulator side the Shred Zeppelin becomes a Tubeless Plug applicator. The tubeless plugs are stored within the body of the tool. The shortened applicator prong design prevents the plug being inserted too far in to the tyre. Simply fold over the tubeless plug after inserting it in to the prong, plug the tyre and pull out the tool, the plug is short enough not to require trimming.

CO2 Regulator
Unscrew the back end of the tool and the Shred Zeppelin becomes an in-line CO2 regulator. Screw in a CO2 cartridge fully to puncture the seal then push over the opened valve. Tightening or loosening the cartridge will regulate the CO2 flow.

Valve Core Tool
Inside the threaded end of the tool is a valve core removal slot. Simply place the tool over the valve core and turn it to tighten or remove the valve core. It is recommended that the valve core be removed if a tubeless tyre needs to be re-seated on the rim.

Prohibition in place - no movement or sales of alcohol & cigarettes.
All restaurants, take-outs and even pie counters & bakeries in supermarkets closed.
Some army deployed to assist police and now it looks like full deployment.
Hopefully we see a phased unlock in a more scientific way in about 2 weeks.
Will do our best. The civil unrest and looting (a fair portion pure criminality in addition to the real desperation of the poor) has already started in some areas...
Hope it means our hard lockdown is relaxed a bit and soon...
These are pricier but can get it local
Easy enough to just pop it into a pocket though
Why?
Doesn´t seem too different to me honestly, but if it really is better i´ll gladly buy a DART instead of something else.
Can you elaborate a little on what makes the dart so superior? Thx!
Well, so it would seem. I´ve never tried any of those systems yet and it seemed to me they all work for the most part so i´m just curious in what area exactly the usual soft plugs are lacking where the dart would make for a significant improvement. Like, have you guys had soft plugs fly out after some time where the plug kept going? Or is the dart plug able to seal bigger holes than the usual soft plugs?
Just curious, because the replacement dart-plugs are freakin expensive, but if they really can do what other products can´t, it might well be worth it.
I´ve just seen too many products, that seemed logical on paper, not work out any better than the low tech alternative, so i´m a little hesitant to put in the extra money without knowing what benefits i can expect :-)
And since people seem to rave about the dart, i´d like to know what exactly their perceived benefits are.
That´s what i wanted to hear! Thx!
