    It's nice to receive a helping hand when needed.

    What CO² inflator do you have that it has Presta and Schrader specific attachments?
    I have two and they're both universal and fit both valve types
  • looking on the net it seems even my co2 device is 'old school'......it was a rac'inflate - basically a small bit of ally threaded tube that screwed onto a canninster - its got yellow and blue rubber for insulation and measures about 1" in length - schrader only. freezes fingers in seconds........

    bit like this but smaller....
