Crack-pipe needed for Hed Jet Disc?? Can't Post
I will be using 36mm stems on my Hed Jet disc. Is a crack pipe adapter needed or will I be able to use a regular floor pump? I have a wrench force floor pump - not sure of the model.

Some pumps might be able to get wedged in there...But I use a crack pipe on mine.

You will likely need a hash pipe (old skool) with a floor pump, but will not need any adaptor with a CO2 inflater device. Tim

Mine wroks better with the crack pipe.
FWIW I can fill it up myself- better than my Zipp Disc.

Its an amazingly large valve hole they cut, isn't it? But, using the crack pipe (or disc chuck) is still the easiest way to get it inflated.
