Not trying to be rude, but, if you’d used one for this job you’d not have said this. You’re not trying to blow water out of bearings, you’re just blowing it off surfaces. Basically just speeding up the normal drying process to stop corrosion (and dripping on your nice clean floor)
No offence taken, although I have used compressors far more times than average joe as worked in the compressed air industry for more than 15 years.
What I was getting at is that most people with compressors tend to use the blow gun at far more than 30 psi, which can blow air and water past seals if directed straight at them. The blowers don’t get any where near the pressure so are safer to use.
Cheap compressors are fine for what is said in this thread and blowing water off frames but to actually dry a bike quickly, a blower moving more air at a lower pressure will do it quicker.
Not entirely feasible for somebody using it in their own house or garage maybe, so I take your point and will turn my pedant mode off 😉
