Truflo Minoot CO2 mini pump


The Minoot is an excellent, ultrasimple backup to have stowed away in a pocket or at the bottom of your bag.

Compatible with both Presta and Schrader valves, unscrewing the cartridge starts the delivery of CO2, and vice versa (although there are no instructions included to tell you that).

The foam insulator protects your hands from the freezing metal without adding bulk, but beware of where you store it, as dirt and water can clog up the exposed Presta valve nozzle.

For the money, it’s an affordable extra that will get you rolling quickly if you’re against the clock, or when dusk is falling in the winter months.

Save weight when racing, or carry it as a speedy emergency inflator.

Weight 93g
Dimensions 120x25mm

PRICE 20$

COMMENCAL EL CAMINO 3

Commencal are going from strength to strength at the moment and they’ve taken their tough trail hardtail bang up to date with 650b wheels. With its skinny rims, crankset and fork, the El Camino certainly isn’t perfect and it’s the least hardcore bike here. The handling, smoothness, speed and all-round agility of the basic bike still make it a real blast for technical trail riding though, and it’s a great base for upgrading over time.
