Co2 Cartridges

[chris42]

If you use Co2 this is a really cheap place to buy them.
be careful if you use unthreaded ones but the threaded ones fit all.

what sort of psi can you get out of them on a 23x700c road tyre?

16g cartridge = 130 psi for 700 x 23

I've used tyreinflators, dirt cheap and fast delivery. Highly recommended.

Im not sure if they're worth it - I put in 60 strokes on the pump and get a fair bit of pressure, out of the pump...so Im not sure...

I think they're worth it, until you get home and then re-inflate. The 16gm cartridges are about 2.99 if you buy them single.

At tyre inflators they are £2.85 for 5!

Note that inner tubes are fairly porous to CO2, so let them down and reinflate with a track pump when you get home.
