    I have a genuine innovations air chuck, that I’ve used once on the road bike. It seemed to work perfectly and is a whole lot easier than pumping

    Can’t comment on stans flow

    I’ve got an SKS Airchamp, which is very good but takes unthreaded cartridges (can be a pain to get).

    Be aware that CO2 isn’t recommended with Stan’s sealant, at least not the initial inflation anyway.

    Don’t use CO2 with tubeless sealant, it does something to the latex solution causing the latex to clump together into a solid ball.

    Just get a good tack pump.

    You can get N2O cartridges which might work if you’re desperate from http://www.creamsupplies.co.uk which is the same company as http://www.tyreinflators.co.uk just for a different market.

    As an aside, I wonder why we use CO2 and not N2 cartridges.

    That catering supplies place has argon cartridges if you really want something that won’t react with sealant.

    And whatever you do, don’t think about filling a balloon with the N2O and taking in the contents to your lungs, repeatedly 😉

    It’s nearly as much fun as riding your bike! 😀

    i use the decathlon one. It’s good, I got replacement cartidges from tyreinflators.co.uk in the larger 16g size.

    I use it most often for getting the tyre seated on the rim, then you let it down and reinflate with a track pump easy as you like
