My younger days of parties with Nitrus Oxide at parties from cartridges for coffee creamers and seeing the empties pile up, ha put me off ever ever wastefully using a cartridge again If I was racing however, that's different But I'm a mountain biker, and the number of times I've had multiple punctures (or failed repairs, means the weight and space of carrying spares, means the pump wins over One ride I rode over something that put multiple holes in the tube, and had to take it off several times I carry a spare, but it took a couple of fixes to realize it was time to give up on the tube I'm tubleless now, but still carry a spare tube just in case

Co2 is Just a waste of money for something done free will elbow grease
Comment from : Richardz

I carry both and tubeless sealant For mtb especially, if you lose a bead you can reset it with c02

Carry both
Comment from : archiecraig

If you ride tubeless - CO2 is no option (at least not with 99 percent of the sealants) as it freezes the sealant If you don't ride tubeless - well, you don't know what your missing

Lol to givin’ it to the tire with the hand motion!!! 😂😂😂
Comment from : youme77324

You'd probably not be surprised by how the significantly this test would differ when you're dealing with a 26" fat tire bike, which you probably wouldn't be caught dead on We're talking much less pressure, more like 20 psi But the volume difference really changes the situation Storage isn't an issue on my fat tire bike and I carry CO2 and a mini foot pump I've used a mini hand pump But with that much volume, just to get it to good'nuff takes an almost insurmountable amount of pumping For my 29" MTB, I just use a mini hand pump It's work, but not insurmountable

great vid def a sub from me just wanted to say the pump is prolly best as long as its just to fill tire co2 only way to go for seating tires at least in MTB it is i think if u just use a hip pack u can carry any one of them or put pump on bike and throw some co2 in pocket

I carry a Fumpa mini pump…best thing ever Just have to make sure it is charged up
Comment from : Ellie K

I'm new to biking and going down the gravel road It seems like most pressures are around 60-70 for gravel tires so a pump should be just fine for me Thanks

pumps reliability? 😂brI had pumps fail on me brCO2 all the way

"Long story short, there was this dude on the side of the road just giving it to his tire"
Comment from : Danfuerth Gillis

Both Reach for the CO2 when I'm rolling with other people Pump when I'm by myself
Comment from : The Group Ride

I carry an electric pump, unlimited air and don’t need to jack off the bike Runs off the accessory battery that always stays topped up charging from the drive battery
Comment from : Ethan Chow

Careful not to cross thread that pump Aluminum thread mated to plastic thread I had to replace mine
Comment from : Andy L

I've never got the CO2 to work Everytime, just seems to start foaming from the nozzle head - tried on 2 occasions, with no luck Any thoughts on this are welcomebrbrCarry a Lezyne pocket drive Goes in my saddlebag, so no need to carry in the jersey pocket Used a couple of timesyes, it's a bit harder than what CO2 promises to be, but dependable and got me home
Comment from : shreyasc

ALERT: IF you use Silca Ultimate Sealant with Carbon fibers AND need to use a CO2 Cartridge due to air loss, the C02 causes a chemical reaction and will solidify all of your sealant in your tireJust experienced this
Comment from : That Guy

I carry 25gram cartridge Good for 2 tires
Comment from : Roman Artemyev

I have a minipump attatched to the bottle cage on my gravel bike, co2 and a spare tube on my MTB running tubeless, but my road bike pump is the Topeak Hybrid Rocket RX This is co2 AND a minipump The best of both worlds !!
Comment from : Innes Browning

What pump are you using on the video
Comment from : thomas yue

Is that a 12 gram or 16 gram Co2? I use 16 grams I think they add about 30 PSIG more I also carry 2 cartridge of Co2
Comment from : George Pepper

Good review, I carry both just out of habit as I like to be able to assist anyone stuck with a flat and has no pump or a CO2 failure which I’ve had to do wayyy to many times, but I can’t just ride by someone in distress
Comment from : Keith Burnage

Great cycling topic and comparison Thank you
Comment from : JDP

Personally, I carry the portable hand pump just because its more cost effective
Comment from : Kareem Abner

Co2 without a doubt on the road Each cartridge fully emptied gives a fully pumped tire, with 2 cartridges more than enough if you run good tires, which means you rarely puncture When you get home empty the air from the tire and use your home pump
Comment from : Julian Z

I've read that Co2 is not recommended for use with latex I use Vittoria latex tubes and they state that I have also been left walking because Co2 has let me down several times So now I have a Silca frame pump Yeah is weighs about a half a pound and it is long, that's what she said, but it gets me up to 100psi quickly and never leaves me stranded and I can help others if I run into someone needing help Every time I was left walking I saw many cyclists ride right by me probably because they were unable to help because they only had enough C02 for themselves I carry one spare tube for me but I also carry patches that I could use to help another cyclist We need to quit being such weight wennies that we can't help out other people in need
Comment from : Charles Man

I used to carry a handpump, but my short or group rides I tend to carry a CO2 brEspecially in the heat it takes forever to pump up your tyre with a handpumpbrbrIf I’m going on a long ride (or bike trip) I still tend to take my handpump
Comment from : MJ95

Co2 is wasteful
Comment from : DanTuber

I carry Co2and was told after fixing a puncture, after using the cylinder ;when you get home , deflate the tyre and re-inflate with normal floor pump Is this correct ?
Comment from : Roger Jeffreys

The co2 I find doesn’t hold pressure for long, if I use them once home I empty all of the air and redo
Comment from : Adrian Devin

I got my pump attached to my bottle cage never notice it, but came in handy for a mate who has been style-shaming me for my "not-aero" pump
Comment from : Nicolas Olguin

I carry both, CO2 and valve in a small saddle bag with other tools and pump in my jersey pocket Specialized do a really small pump with an inner tube holder so I've put a Tubolito tube on it for emergency purposes (tubeless failure), the whole assembly fits in a pocket inside a Velopac pouch with room to spare and the whole assembly is probably just as compact as one butyl rubber inner tube
Comment from : John Murphy

Good review of both options I use the mini pump Hadn’t thought about CO2 inflators until now so may need to try playing with that I have a Elite Super Byasi Storage Bottle on the bike In it I have the mini pump, multi tool including chain breaker, tyre levers, puncture repair kit,inner tube, spare chain links, replacement mech hanger and a Topeak chain hook and wear indicator No saddle bag needed It fits a lot of hopefully unnecessary to use goodies
Comment from : Alan Daly

TBH, I carry both I have the Topeak Ninja fitted inside my seat tube It's neatly out of the way I've not used it yet as co2 is more convenient, easier and has been enough on the few flats I've had It's there for backup which is reassuring on 10 hour + rides
