Tons of Airflow: Bike Tools & Maintenance

I bought this and replaced a Schrader nozzle on an old blower with a 3ft PVC hose and some quick disconnects. A little overkill, but that's all I had for spares. The fitting will let air through when you attach it to the presta valve, but since you're probably going to inflate the tire anyway, I don't see that as a big issue. deal with it. The airflow through this faucet is phenomenal. I went from 5psi to 60psi in seconds on my homemade 26 inch tubeless tires. MAKE SURE TO SET YOUR POWER OUTPUT

Pros
  • Best in the Niche
Cons
  • None

One leaked and the other wouldn't stay on the Schrader valve

0 for 2 This is the quality I got in a box of 2 pneumo cartridges. One leaked so hard my electric pump could barely keep up. The other would not engage the Schrader valve no matter how hard I tried to push and turn the knurled ring; it just kept popping up. And yes, I made sure the ring was set to "S" (Schrader) for both. I replaced these air canisters with Ram-Pro Heavy Duty air canisters, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07N9773DN. /ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1, same…

Pros
  • Good product for its price
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

These goats are terrible!

I use it on two different compressors. They're much easier to swap between Presta and Schrader valves than most hand pumps you buy. They are also very easy to apply and remove with little or no air loss. I have tried many different types of ammo for my bike as it is very difficult to get at and hold the ammo. This made it very easy and also made it easy to inflate my bike's tires with Presta valves. Update 11/18/21 - I have replaced these two cartridges with others. The idea is great, but the…

Pros
  • Brings joy

Universal Air Canister - Hope it lasts

I deal with Presta and Schrader valves so this air canister seems like the perfect buy. Problems dozens of times when I used it. The only thing that worries me is the feeling of a loose yoke and a general feeling of poor cartridge tolerance. It has quite a bit of "play" in its feel, and I'm worried it might fall apart (as another reviewer showed his photos disassembled). one had to make a scrupulous effort to push the collar in, tuck it in to keep it from slipping back. Otherwise you'll try to…

Pros
  • Excellent Construction
Cons
  • Intervals

Works well for Presta but not perfect

I'm fed up with the cheap plastic filler head on my air compressor tire. It didn't seal well and it was difficult to set the exact air pressure in my Presta valved bike tires. This cartridge is all metal and appeared to be of better quality and more durable. It takes a bit of training to use properly, but it comes with good full-color instructions. Once properly screwed onto the Presta valve, it closes tightly and does not leak. It can be removed easily and quickly by pulling the blue collar…

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Not the best

Loved the idea but difficult to use

I read about this tool and was impressed that it's well built and works with both Schrader and Presta valves ( I was mostly worried about Presta for my bike and inflating/mounting tubeless tires). What frustrated me was that I really only wanted/needed one cartridge, but the listing was for two cartridges, so it was either that or nothing. Consequently, the price was about double what I should have paid. But for a great product I would (and maybe share another one with a friend)! I found the…

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Definitely bad product
