Btwin Co2

[kiwifruit]

I brought one of these today from decathlon
http://www.decathlon.co.uk/700-co2-puncture-repair-kit-id_8297931.html

It was only £7.99 and also brought 2 extra cartridges @ £1.25 each. I thought it was pretty cheap and give it a go. Has anyone use this before and what are they like?

I've got one at the moment and they work as well as the branded ones. The only genuinely bad CO2 inflator I had was the wiggle Lifeline own brand jobbie. Just awful.

Just make sure you don't use it with uncovered hands (or wet gloves ) or you'll likely end up with cold burns.

Yep. Works fine.

Looks a good bit of kit for the price.

I use a piece of foam lagging for mine that the canister sits in

The extra weight!

The extra weight!

I cut it in half length ways to reduce the thickness and thus the weight........












No I didn't.

I slip a short section if 23mm inner tube over my (16g) cartridges, and I still have skin on my fingers

i've got one from aldi from a couple of years ago.

only used once (as a test of concept prior to considering relying on it and a mini-pump), and it worked really well. it was supplied with a bit of foam rubber to avoid the cold burns as described above.

it has a valve tap, so it makes it easier to use and less easy to mess up…

the inflator looks the same as my weldite one, it has been spot on for years.
