Need a compressor

#1

Post by Renier_c »

So my 2nd hand compressor gave up after 9 years.
Need a new one. What is good value for money?
And will be able to inflate the 35" of the H3?

Chas, he asked where he can get a compressor as his packed up.
He didn't ask "please give me a short - hand list of things to consider when buying a compressor"

I need to inflate 35s from 0.8 to 2.2 bar. Once or 2 times a month.

Manny’s right for the wrong reason;
cant advise on a little top-up job.
My apologies.

As said above the 160l job from Adendorff is best value, it's the same as the TJM/MotoQuip/Trailboss and is the cheapest.

Renier, my Adendorff pump would not even inflate my Jimmy tyres, the Iron Man looks the same but the quality is much better. Or look at ARB expensive but it lasts,
