tire/tube changing equipment and the act of using them

Post by Arden Kysely » Thu Nov 08, 2007 9:40 am

The only air I carry is the bike pump. Works fine...who's in a hurry when you have a flat? Takes a lot of CO2 to fill a tire, and if you have another leak and no more cartridges, you're SOL. Electric pumps-- might cave in and buy one some day, but I'm currently trying to shed gear weight, not gain it. My air mat only takes 19 big breaths to fill. Best done before the liquid fun comes out. __Arden
