I'm searching for one of these to use for inflating both tubed and tubeless tires with my air compressor. Ideally it would lock on to the valve stem to keep a hand free for helping get tubeless tires seated. I've found some options, anyone have experience with any of these?
http://www.prestaflator.com/ - inexpensive, but requires changing parts for schrader
http://problemsolversbike.com/products/airbob - looks cheap for the price, but should work well
http://www.parktool.com/product/shop-inflator-inf-1 - looks like you still have to hold it onto valve stem, but at least one hand operation
DIY something using floor pump head and auto inflator handle
I have a 6 year old model of this air compressor.
I also have an automotive style schrader inflator that works well with car tires, but is a pain for bike tires because you have to hold it onto the valve stem with one hand while squeezing the lever with the other. Also, needing to use a presta to schrader adapter is annoying.
