[Closed] Tubeless - Garage air compressors in Sheffield

Trying to pop up a non UST ardent tubeless on an DT5.1 rim (with rimstrip fitted). The bead one side of the tyre is fitted pretty good, just need a garage compressor to pop the other side on.

Anyone know of any garages, preferably SW Sheffield, that still have a normal compressor instead of those 'digital' style ones which just don't deliver enough air at once. There was much faffing at Tesco's Abbeydale road last night... ๐Ÿ™‚

Thankfully not needed to do this for a while, but when I did I had better luck with the Sainsbury's on Archer Road: and easier to stay 'under the radar' round the corner out of sight! You are using the flat tyre button, right?

DeeW, I didn't find the flat tyre button at first, but when I did it made no difference. Think that Sainsburys garage has been flattened now.

Ewan - genius! I'll try that ta ๐Ÿ˜€
