Why not just pack an extra CO2 cartridge ?

Scott,

How about the Ryobi. It seems to get good reviews/

I see it is only rated to 100psi so perhaps not so useful for everyone,

Genetics load the gun, lifestyle pulls the trigger.

I had the craftsman and its terrible. Big, heavy, LOUD and really slow to inflate tires. Just bring a floor pump.

I disagree with the other posters. For CX and Mtb it is terrific. Watch a world cup cx race and see how many are in use in the pits.
My teammate has the Craftsman that looks like a drill. I have the Ryobi that looks like a traditional inflator. Slight preference for his.
Either way getting the correct presta inflator head is a must.

Hello Great Scott,

Available here: http://www.sears.com/...HAQ&gclsrc=aw.ds

Works great for road bike tires ... has a built in pressure gauge visible on the back of the pump.

Need to add a presta inflation chuck .....

I use the KCNC chuck and it works fairly well ....

Ditto previous post, Craftsman is available, just not stocked at most locations. They don't sell a whole lot of these. Order online, have it delivered or shipped to local store.

They're pretty great, have had a couple of them over the years, as well as a couple of other alternative options. Current Craftsman is the best I've ever used, gauge is actually dead nuts on with the expensive benchmark gauge I cobbled together.
