Well I've read this couple times. Have some co2 cartridges and plugs in my travel bag. The cartridges are old, and I been thinking maybe not the best and did I have enough to re-inflate tire. So I did some searching. Did some reading. A bit more searching and reading. And just bought a Cycle Pump set up. A bit expensive, $160 with 90° attachment, shipped. I like the small portable battery operated pumps, but have a fear of it rattling in saddlebags and not being usable when needed. This seems more robust, so I'm hoping it's money well spent!! Buy once, cry once....hope that's true here!!

I have the cartridge style in the pack I wear when out on my Ktm. I just don't like the amount of cans it takes to fill a tire. It works for the off road situation as I do not have a battery on my bike. Our street bikes have a battery so I decided to go with the electric.
$160?......I would cry too. LOL

Okay, I just checked out the Cycle Pump. A life time warranty sounds nice.

I’ve had mine since 2016. It really is a high quality pump. One I don’t mind loaning out if another rider sees me using it and asks to borrow if I’m out on the road. The smaller pumps will overheat and die if they are used for several bikes in a row.

This is what I carry, I just got the regular ones and removed all the plastic covers, wrap it in a sock I take it out every once in a while and spray lube I the piston part. It’s been in my saddle bag for 15 years with a regular plug kit.
