I just installed a new MH90-21 front tire yesterday with Dyna Beads for the first time. Results so far are excellent. Ran the bike up to @90 last night and everything is dead smooth.
They have the consistency of fine sand. I don't think the little bag of beads would be the main concern after a blowout.

I installed them several months ago and they work as advertised. They can be a pain in the **** to install through the valve stem if the stem comes out of the rim in a horizontal plane. I would recommend installing them as you mount the tire so feeding them through the stem isn't necessary.
Yep, I like them well enough to use them again, I hate weights on the wheels.
I wouldn't worry about them if you have a blowout, it's not like a blowout is going to scatter these tiny beads far enough in front of the wheel to be an issue.

I put them in a few months ago after researching them for awhile. I noticed a great improvement.
Like said the beads would be the least of your problems. But, they are so tiny that pavement texture would swallow them up anyways.

got new tires a few weeks ago and had them installed when the tires were mounted. I was skeptical too, but bike runs great and smooth up to 100. Haven't had enuf straight road to do a more extensive test than that....
