Review on CO2 Inflator Kit For Bike Tires - 5 X 16G CO2 Cartridges, Presta & Schrader Valve Compatible, Insulated Sleeve Included by Larkeese Casiano

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works for road bike tires

When I have flats on the road I call my wife and say "Mayday, Mayday". Since I switched wheels a long time ago I don't get as many flats, but I thought this kit might be a good one to take along to see if I could save myself next time. I run tubeless with plenty of extra sealant, so if the sealant can plug the hole this would allow me to top the pressure back up.So of course as Murphy's Law would have it, my next flat was a rupture in the dang rim tape! Sealant could not plug that enough, but this kit still allowed me a couple chances to try. I got the pressure back up to where the tire would have been plenty rideable if it had held, and did so more than once. It just would not hold the pressure. Using the CO2 cartridges is going to be quicker and easier than those crappy little hand pumps, and less weight and bulk to carry on the bike too.While one cartridge was more than enough for one road tire, I suggest having at least two for mountain bike tires.
