[Closed] PSA: UST Guys Lidl Compressor time again

While we're on the subject of such emporia, I see Aldi have some "Mountain Bike Shorts" soon:-

😆

(although the 3/4 ones look OK if they do them)

cheap merino tops on that Aldi link too.

30% merino tho'

The winter gloves are great.

So, do you think the Lidl compressor would have enough oomph to inflate tubless tires. Thanks

Looks similar to the Aldi one so yes buy one, they are great.

are those aldi gloves worth getting just as everyday winter/cold weather gloves rather than specifically for riding? i need some reasonably warm/waterproof ones soon and i'm reluctant to spend a fortune on some.

So, do you think the Lidl compressor would have enough oomph to inflate tubless tires.

Easily. For seating tyres, the compressor's power is more or less meaningless. The tank is what provides the store of air needed - it's got one, so it'll do it. A decent inflator gun will help a lot though - the cheap ones can lose a lot of air around the sides of the valve.

Clas Olsen (usefullshop) have compressors for £80 upwards depending on tank/power/oil-free options. Quite fancy one incase I get a hankering to do any spraying.
