Portable Compressor

Just got an email from Bearmach about portable compressors. Have a look at this link. Enlarge the photo and look at the box which states "OUSTRNDING PERFORMANCE"! Would you trust a product with that type of description on the box? Seriously any thoughts on the compressor? They also have a slightly more expensive heavy duty one.

Still have my original twin compressor TMax, about 15 years old and still as good as gold. It’s also very fast.

Also For those that ride mountain bikes and set up tubeless tyres it makes life very easy.

Forgot to say, I cut the power cable and added an Anderson connector to join the two back together.

The reason is that it can still be portable and connected via the crocodile clips to another vehicle, or even a spare battery if needs be. It’s so fast I can air up the tyres on the wife’s Velar when fully loaded when going on holiday and I set the TMPS to Heavy Load, and that just using it connected to an AGM battery without affecting its charge.

I also have an addition Anderson plug connected to the passenger seat bos wired directly to my second battery.

If you and they have it the twin version is worth it for speed alone.

I thought that you were looking to put air into your tyres, not suck it out……….
