Any deals on compressors about at the moment? Sick of trying to use a track pump / co2 canister. I know you can do a home made bodge thing but I just want some thing that will make the job super easy and quick as a tyre seems to last me a couple of rides before I tear it at the moment

Buying a compressor for blowing up bike tyres is like buying a land rover to go to the shops. Unless you plan to use it for other stuff, I'd suggest a good high volume track pump, or one of those purpose made reservoirs that imitate what the ghetto bottle does.

The ghetto bottle is minimum faff btw, takes 3o minutes to make one, and a couple of minutes or so to seat a tyre from then on.

No idea, my Aldi one was £70 but leaks and so needs charged everytime I use it. I am told all cheap ones do this!

Handy for fat bike, if it weren't for that I'd flog it and create a tubeless bodge thingmy
