I've opted for buying some new tyre levers in the absolute certainty that the missing ones will turn up shortly after the replacements arrive .

Not any more- the DSR ensure that it takes a couple of extra weeks now

I have found a way of eliminating p*******s altogether. I spent a lot of money on the most expensive CO2 inflating kit I could find and several spare gas cylinders. Since then - no punctures! Did I speak too soon?

Check whether there is an issue next to the valve stem since when in the tyre the stem is under some pressure where it goes through the rim. Under pressure coupled with position being forced it may leak whereas when out of the tyre and at lower pressure it may be fine.
