Tubeless Tire Inflator 1.15l

I learned that my Lezyne Pressure Overdrive pump might have been recalled by reading its reviews elsewhere. Those reviewers raved about the Airshot. I bought one and planned to use it on un-tubed wheels on a newly purchased used bike. I wimped out and went with TPU tubes. The Airshot sat unused, until I converted everything to Clik valves. Two un-tubed 29x2.2 Maxxis Ikons with Fillmore valves needed their sealant topped up and valve stems replaced. I deflated one of them, reflected the tire enough to expose the Fillmore and replace it with a tubeless stem that could accept a Clik valve. I restored the tire and studied the Airshot. Inflate it with a floor pump attached to the presta valve on top. Discharge it into an empty valve stem, or a presta valve. I put a presta valve in the tires un-tubed valve stem, inflated the Airshot to 60 psi, and flipped its valve, emptying its tank into the waiting tire. The tire inflated quickly, and the loud bangs of the bead seating followed. Painless, and quick! I released the air from the tire, injected 2 oz of sealant, replaced the presta valve with a Clik valve, and inflated it with a mini electric inflator. One down, one to go. The other went just as quickly. I'm sold on the Airshot. It's small, light, sealed the large volume tires quickly with a reasonably low pressure, and it's not under recalled.

No more soap, no more strap, no more air compressor, no more tube Hokey Pokey, no more sore thumbs. Used this for a 33mm pathfinder on a roval carbon wheel. Tough combo, worked first try out the box.

Recently I was faced with seating a new set of tubeless tires for my road bike. In the past, I've had good luck using the "just pump until your arms fall off" method of seating tubeless tires along with the CO2 cartridge method, but I was feeling exceptionally lazy and I've had a few failures lately, so when I saw this was available for same day delivery, I decided to give it a shot (or is that an Air.. shot? Get it?). It did the trick alright, and got two 700x25c Schalbe Pro One tires seated on my Hope 20Five wheels in short order. There are a couple finer points worth noting... one is that it seems to work best (at least with narrower width road tires) if you position the valve stem in the 6 o'clock position, Another point is that you should rotate the tire at least once before inflating to get some sealant distributed around the tire. And finally, if you're using the valve-stem adapter which screws into your valve in place of the valve-stem, make sure that the valve is between the 3 and 9 o'clock positions so that the pressure doesn't push your sealant back up and into your air shot when you let it out of the tire to remove the Airshot. It should go without saying that if you're using the valve-stem adapter, you should let the pressure out of the system with the presta valve on top of the Airshot before removing the hose from the valve. So, over all, I'd say this thing does it's job well. It's built with nice hardware and will probably last for quite a while. I just wish it wasn't so pricey. Honestly it was a toss up between this and a California Air Tools CAT-1P1060S. This is 2/3rds the price of an actual air compressor. But this comes with all the proper fittings to connect to a presta valve and was available same day from Amazon, whereas I would've needed to buy a hose and a presta valve nozzle for the air compressor. Eventually I may still get a compressor, but for now, this does the trick. One final note, the bottle itself is shiny and slippery and will probably get bounced around occasionally if you're anywhere near as much of a klutz as me. I threw a couple old tube socks over the bottle to give it a little extra padding and some grip. The airshot folks sell a fitted neoprene sock on their site, but a couple tube socks seem to do the trick just as well. Pro's: * Easy to use * Quality parts * Does what it says Con's: * Pricey

This will work for its intended purpose, but it could be improved upon. You will likely need to remove the valve core on your wheel in order to get the flow of air to move quickly enough to pop the tire on the bead. After that, if you leave it in place for a few minutes, you can remove the tank, screw in the valve core, and inflate the tire to full pressure. The only main drawback I see with this tank itself is that there is no way to remove the Presta valve core in the tank inflation valve. These things often get bent or fail. Replacing the entire Presta valve assembly on the tank should not be the only option for something at this price level.

Fantastic! Works like magic! After everything I had tried and all the money I had spent trying to get a seal for my road bike tubeless tires, this product, despite its unassuming looks, worked like magic. No hassles.

Bought this thing 5 years ago and never really got the chance to use it. I was able to actually get my tubeless tires on with just the hand pump just fine. This season I purchased new bike and wheel, I had a difficult time popping the tubeless tire on the wheels (both front and rear). Decided to try this gadget out that I had never used since purchasing it. To my surprise, this thing seated the beads so easily. I did not even need to fill up the bottle above 120 psi, just above 110 psi or so. The quality is great, it's light weight (so possible to take it with you on a ride if necessary), it doesn't leak, the design is good. I can't really comment on the durability since I haven't really used it but maybe twice. I did buy this a long time ago, but it's always been sitting in the box stored in a plastic bin. I would assume this can take a beating though, because I did drop it on the floor once and I didn't see any damage. For anyone who does not have a compressor, I highly suggest buying this to help you seat the beads for your tubeless tire.

Finally a solution that works! I’ve had a hell of a time setting up tubeless tires for my gravel and road bikes. This device actually works. I had a stubborn set of 28” schwalbe one’s that refused to seat for me. But with the Airshot it inflated first try. I didn’t even need to use soapy water for the second tire; it seared immediately. This thing rocks!

1.inflate the canister to 150 psi. 2.the rim and tire should be clean 3.put a dishwash bubble between the rim and the side of the tire so that the bubble will help the bead to slip into the rim. 4.remove the presta valve so that a large volume of air flow pass thru. 5.fix the canister and release the air you will hear the poping sound. 6.if you will not put a dishwash bubble or soapy between the tire and rim you will fail. 7.once you here the popping sound that means your ok remove the air 8.and you can put the liquid sealant use a Syringe and fill the air shot 150 psi inflate . THE GOAL IS TO LET THE BEADS SIT OF THE RIM.

Ca marche super bien. Sans cela, impossible de faire claquer mes pneus tubeless. Le système est super pratique, pas besoin de déconnecter pompe à pied, le Airshot au pneu de vélo, avec le système de valve c'est au top. J'ai du m'y reprendre à 2 fois pour faire claquer mon pneu, la première fois, je n'avais pas mis assez de pression, mais grâce à ce système on retente rapidement. Le système pour insérer à la place de l'obus dans la valve de la roue est top. C'est hermétique avec un débit maximum. Bref je recommande.

Ci ho tallonato con estrema semplicità e con una pompa vecchia e usurata (questo per rispondere a chi crede serva una super pompa da 200€ per riempire la bombola...) un tubeless maxxis da 25 per bdc, il mio primo tubeless aggiungo. L'unica accortezza, e qui va fatta una enorme critica al produttore, procedendo come da istruzioni NON tallonerete MAI! infatti stavo quasi per rinunciare credendo che il problema fosse la mia povera e vecchia pompa... invece come già fatto notare da un altro utente, il trucco sta nello svitare la valvola presta e solo dopo tenendo a contatto le due valvole (del cerchio e del booster) aprire l'aria e allora si che si tallona in un attimo. la valvola presta pur avvitando il terminale come da istruzioni fa in qualche modo da tappo, l'aria passa con molta difficoltà e quindi non riesce assolutamente a tallonare. non ho idea se sulle mtb funziona come dovrebbe ma per le bdc è così. comunque conoscendo il trucco funziona alla grande, ti fa fare a meno di un costoso ed ingombrante compressore oltre che di perdere tempo e soldi nei negozi di ciclisti... far da se non ha prezzo 👍

Klappt gut . 2 mal üben dann gehts
