Ok guys, i'm after a decent Co2 inflator.
Small enough to go in a back pocket. Around £15 - £20 if possible
Any recommendations?
Cheers

£5 including two cartridges, small and they work very well.

I've had some bad luck with these things, they just seem to explode for me

+1 for the m-part micro. The couple of times I've needed it it's worked, there's no need for anything more expensive or bulkier to be honest. Slightly controllable valve too. You can pick about 30 threaded CO2 Cartridges of ebay for around 30 quid.

Think I may get one of these for my road bike, is it a case of one cartridge per inflation or do you need a couple? (based on a 23mm road tyre up to 100psi ish)?

1 is fine for a 23mm @ 100psi, can't see the point myself though apart from when racing as you'll always want a pump for backup anyway.

If you're carrying a normal pump too, I can highly recommend the Canyon combined pump/CO2 jobby.
