Air compressor recommendations?

I'd go for the Presta Flator. Can't remember how much it was (not cheap), but it's super easy to use.

 

they go for about 40 bucks..for a cheap quick way just get a brass shrader fitting.

 

Been using this cheap one from HFT.

Just use a presta valve adapter.

 

If you go with harbor freight, be sure to get extended warranty.

 

Some direct answers for the OP..... Unless its a compressor for a paint sprayer<technically thats just a pump> they will all run 90 plus PSI, possibly up to 150.... <not including industrial use>
Biggest thing you need to find out is what your volume needs are, if your just inflating tires, a small 3gal works great, enough volume to fill a tire, fills up fast, and works well. If your running air tools, youll want to get something bigger. Most fifty gallon will do the job well, but not for an extended time..... DOwnside, take longer to fill up.

Next question is.... How are you with noise. Oilless will be loud, they all are... they take a little longer to fill, and piss off the neighbors... Oil type are less loud and fill faster. I will let you guess which is more expensive.

 

Head down to the LBS and grab an adapter, should run ya about 99¢. Some places have 'em for 70¢

 

perfect! Thanks for all the replies...I'm not set up with the compressor and adaptor and man was it super easy putting on a tubeless tire!

 

What about a mini AC/DC compressor for the sole purpose of filling air in tires
Any commendations ?

 

Mini Air Compressor

Looking for recommendation on a mini Air Compressor
I need it just for inflating Presta and Schrader bike tubes/tires.

Will something like this work good ? not really needing the 300 psi....

it will work to fill tires but not good for setting the bead. If you're not going tubeless it's fine.

 

Check out Harbor Freight

 

picked up a 3 gallon 1/2 hp compressor at HF and it works for tons of stuff, Obviously its a small tank and could take longer than a big compressor to fill car tires or the like. It works well for its size and has yet to fail me. 100psi cap on the tank and doesn't take too long to fill it up! think it was like 40 bucks new. and a hose is like 5. If you want a high quality one that will last forever spend some decent coin and get something nice. I dont use mine for all too much so 40 was the right price.

 

are you just using this to put your car tires? if so do what i did i just use my bike pump ahaha! if it can put my road bike to 120psi i can do my tires to 35psi no prob.

also those compressor takes forever to fill up a tire. i had one similar. my bike put is faster....

 

I'm pretty sure you're kidding... but this is a great idea if you want to pump for days to reach 35 psi or if you want people to laugh at you struggle.

 

Actually I need the compressor to fill my Tubeless.
What would you recommend for Tubeless ?

 

This one ?

Will it work for Tubeless ?

 

I think I have this exact compressor from Harbor Freight. Works great for tubeless. I bought mine for $30 or $40 with a coupon a few months ago.

 

Thanks for the tip
Any URL for the coupon ?

Also what other parts do I need to get along with the compressor ?
i.e hose and what interface for the presta/schreder valves?

 

"Shop20" coupon code will get you 20% off.

 

I bought a basic hose/fitting kit from Harbor Freight when I bought the compressor. Only other piece needed is a presta-schrader adapter, either online or at just about any bike shop.
