Duration Product Used:
3 months
Price Paid:
$20.00
Purchased At:
J.E.James'
Strengths:
Very small, handy for inflating tubes to put into the tyre then giving a quick blast of Co2 to get up to pressure for riding.
Weaknesses:
Can't get hold of the correct cartridge to fit it.
Similar Products Used:
air compressor (not very handy on the trail though)
Bike Setup:
Aireborne lucky strike
Bottom Line:
Everybody stocks the larger sized threaded cartridges, no one stocks the ones for this pump. I have even been to the home brew stores but the Co2 cannisters there don't fit. I have contacted the manufacturer and asked what i can use. They have no suggestions of alternative cannisters and tell me that they may never resume producing the cannisters made specifically for this pump. Makes the pump a complete waste of time.
