Topeak CO2-Bra CO2 inflator


The snake-shaped plastic head of the CO2-Bra is easy to use with one hand and keeps your skin away from the cold surface of the cartridge. A gauge on the back turns red if the inflator is ‘armed’ and a thumb lever allows precise control of gas flow. It accepts Presta and Schrader valves, and the forked-tongue dust cap is a nice touch!

We inflated our 27.5x2.35in test tyre to 20psi using a 16g cartridge but you’ll need a different inflator if you run a firmer set-up, since the CO2-Bra won’t accept larger canisters.

Price $34 w/16g cartridge
