Default Air dryer

I recently purchased an air dryer. I was skeptical about how it would work, but man this thing works. The thing I didn't like about using my leafblower was that I kept bumping into the bike.

What dryerdid you get? Where? How much? TIhanks, 've been thinking about it for awhile, blow the water off before it's got time to cause those nasty spots that are hard to get off then.

I have a Cycle Dry that I picked up before I owned a leaf blower. The thing is very handy for getting into small nooks because of the flexible rubber hose. It's not as powerful as my leaf blower, but it serves its purpose well.

I got the little orange one from the dealership, it does a good job, I just dont like that the rubber piece keeps vibrating off. But overall it does good. I am already thinking about getting the big floor model.

I bought the metro blaster last year. One of the best purchases I've ever made. I now sort of wish I got the big model now, because I use it on my other vehicles as well. I would never use the leaf blower because I don't want some rock or debris to come flying out and smack into a new paint job.

I got one last year also, love it! I agree with you about the leaf blower, the blaster filters the air so no worry about blowing debri.

Picked up a small Craftsman compressor for $89.00. Just right for blowing off those "hard to get" places after washing the bike. Came with the attachment for blowing up basketballs, footballs, soccrer *****, tires etc.
