    Tried the 5 piece kit from Amazon… but the gun broke, the inflator doesn’t like the presta converter and…don’t really need the rest (spray and long nozzle).

    Park Tool is a bit dear (140£) and can’t order any of the American stuff (EVT/PrestCycle).

    Any other options?

    Thanks

    The inflators usually come with very poor connectors. Best thing to do is cut the end off and fit the head from a track pump.

    The Blower is also useful for tubeless. Take out the valve core out and hold the nozzle straight into the valve outer for max air flow to seat an awkward tyre.

    I have a decathlon head on mine, great in the bikes, a bit shit on the car, but not useless.

    I went to a local tyre place and bought a connector from them for a couple of pounds. It clips onto the push on adaptor easy and has no problem with bike or car valves.
