I was in the Alps in September and the Exo casing on my Minion was perhaps a little flimsy for the terrain, consequently had a slash to the sidewall which fixed pretty simply with the help of a Stans dart. Its been in there ever since but im contemplating getting a new tyre whilst they're cheap on Wiggle...unless the fixes are as good as new and theres no point. What sort of time span should expect from a tire repair?

If a hole is small enough to be repaired by a tubeless plug then there's no reason it shouldn't keep going until it wears out. I've ridden plugged tyres for years

Same here. Repaired tyres have been ran until they wore out, not until they again failed.

We plug ours trailside with a Dynaplug Racer and then permanent repair with a mushroom plug once back at home. They last until tyre is then worn out
