Portland Design WorksBARkeep CO2 Inflator(Return to Product Page)

I really like this product I will eventually get 2 more so I can have one on each bike and not have to swap it back and fourth

I commute with my bikes 2 road bikes & a fat-tire bike

I love the gauge feature so you can just make sure to fill the tire to the correct pressure

I brought the Portland Design inflator since the CO2 inflator I have don't have much insulation when gas is being

released, freezing my fingers as I'm trying to hold it steady. The only con is I can't fit the CO2 cartridge in the plastic housing without puncturing the seal. For those of you who have a saddle bag, this is no issue. For me, I have to stash it in my jersey pocket full of other stuff. an issue during the cooler month when I need to pack a light jacketarm warmerstoe coversextra gloves along with 2 cartridge, 2 tubes, 2 tire levers, Clif Bars during the 50 miles rides.

Second use and it's already broken. Left me with a long walk in the cold rain this morning.

- it is easy to control the flow of air

- the pressure gauge is useful

- the container keeps the hands from the cold canister

Works well and the gauge is a comforting help. Follow the directions closely it helps alot.

Read previous reviews on this inflator and decided to give it a try.

Encountered a flat on the front tire on my last ride and the inflator was used.

This Portland Design Works proved it's worth!
