I've got a nitrogen needle kit to try and top up the pressure in my dropper post. To fit it to my shock pump, I need an adaptor.

1/4" npt (female) to Shrader (male) rated to about 200 psi.

Any ideas of where I could get one without paying the earth and shipping it half way around the world?

Actually, not that off topic, it's for my bike.

I know strictly speaking NPT and BSP have a different TPI but it'll screw in fine and a bit of thread tape should stop it leaking

Thanks. Wasn't sure how compatible npt was with bsp.
