CO2 + manual inflators

Anonymous

Does anyone have experience with one of these:

or something similar.

I dont even have a set of tyre levers yet, but need something to pump me up anyway. I was thinking this as it is lightweight and makes the best of both worlds.

I think I have used something similar, and the co2 aspect worked a charm. The hand pump part means you can inflate it a bit to check there is no pinching etc and to get the valve in place then deflate and go nuts with the co2 canister.

Question is:
Does anyone have one of these or something similar. Which one is best from experience?

Personally I use a Topeak Road Morph as a pump (and a fine one it is) and the Microflate Nano for CO2 - it works brilliantly.

I've got the GI Mountain Pipe (the MTB version of the 1 you're lookign at). It really is a nice bit of kit and I can't faul it.

There's usually a reason that things are heavily discounted, mainly because they're rubbish!

That innovations pump can be found for a tenner, but it still wouldn't want me to buy one.
