Airshot: the tubeless fitting helper

Pumping tubeless tires onto the rim at the first attempt is often tedious. Airshot offers a remedy with its portable mini compressor.

Tubeless riders know the problem. Tubeless tires can often only be inflated onto the rim with an air compressor. But who has one at home, let alone when traveling? The Airshot company from England has a solution: the Airshot is a hand-operated mini-compressor that can be inflated up to 11 bar even with strong hand pumps. When you open the valve, the large volume of air shoots into the tire and plops it against the rim flange - just like a real compressor. Please note the maximum permissible pressure for the respective rim type, such as 2.7 bar for the "Crest" from Notubes.

The Airshot consists of an aluminum pressure tank, a valve head for filling it and an outlet with a manually operated valve, hose and an end piece that fits on standard valves. The mini compressor weighs 435 grams and, with its 37 centimetre length and slim shape, fits perfectly into your luggage.

The mini compressors from the still young company Airshot are now available in Switzerland from specialist retailers. B-Bikes GmbH is responsible for the Swiss distribution of Airshot.
