The hole is probably .25mm in size. Was thinking of using a standard tube patch on the inside of the tire and then cover the patch with some Gorilla Tape.
Who has had success with an internal patch and what did you use?

I saw this today when I was watching this video. Could be interesting. Well it does not like the time link, go to 2:26

Yea that is what I was thinking.. a road tires fix versus mountain.

Might as well throw my hat into the ring to Dynaplugs. I have used a Dynaplug just once on a 160km fondo ride. Worked like a charm and I was able to finish the ride without issue.
