Any recommendations on a good inflator for use with those quick-inflate air cartridge things? I gather some of them can be a bit fiddly. And where's a good place to buy the cartridges?
It's more for my road bike than mountain bike, but I'm guessing folk on here with tubeless tyres may have used them.

I got the inovations ultraflate plus and a load of non threaded cartriges.
+ it's gt a bit of bulk to it so wont get lot in the bottom of the camelpack and the locking lever means it can be half used then left in the bag without worying about it going off.
+ it doesn't fit in my tinyest (0.2l) saddlebag without dissasembly, but then again not much does, it holds a roadie tube (and even that has to be an expensive 50g one to fit),small multi tool, glueless patch, missing link and dissasembled co2 inflator. For roadie duties I'd probbaly go for a threaded cartrige, neopreen sleve and one of those micro inflators that just screws on the end of the cartrige.
Chhers, I'll check that website out.
I use the Truflo micro inflator. 20g cartridge easily fills a mountainbike tyre. Very small and light,but whichever one you use make sure it has the neoprene jacket on it or it'll take your skin off. Cartridges are off the internet(co2 cartridge world or something). Loads of places doing them for around the same price. We bought thirty and they worked out around £3.50 for ten which is a fraction of what you'll pay for the Genuine Inovation ones in bike shops. Just make sure you order the right ones i.e threaded or unthreaded.
