1 / 6CXWXC CO2 Bike Inflator Kit, Presta and Schrader Compatible
Compatible: The CXWXC CO2 Inflator Kit is a compact tyre-inflation option for road and mountain bikes, with an inflator head specified for Presta and Schrader valves. The listing describes rapid inflation using threaded CO2 cartridges, but says CO2 can escape from the tyre faster than air, so top it up before the next ride.

Pros and cons
Pros
- One inflator is listed for both Presta and Schrader valves.
- A compact CO2 setup is described as suitable for carrying in a saddle bag or jersey pocket.
Cons
- CO2 may leak from a tyre faster than ordinary air, so the listing advises reinflating with a pump before the next ride.
- Each CO2 canister is described as single-use, making it unsuitable as a reusable inflation source.

What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing gives different 16 g cartridge outcomes: 40psi (2.7bar) for a 26” x 1.95” MTB tyre in one shot, and approximately 40psi for an MTB tyre, but also claims 100 psi for a road tyre. Treat these as stated, tyre-dependent claims rather than guaranteed results. It also identifies the cartridges as 16 g while the product title mentions 16 g and 25 g. Confirm the selected kit's cartridge sizes and contents. The cartridges and inflator head can become very cold during use, so use the included insulating sleeve to protect your hands. The manufacturer warns not to store a cartridge screwed into the inflator head, to keep cartridges away from heat, and notes that the gas is not food grade.

Aggregate ratings are largely in the five-star category, with some four- and three-star ratings. Without written feedback, the ratings do not explain what customers liked or what concerns they had. They therefore offer limited guidance on how the inflator performs with particular tyres or cartridge sizes.
Frequently asked questions
Does the CXWXC inflator work with Presta and Schrader valves?
The listing claims compatibility with both valve types.
What tyre pressure can a 16 g cartridge provide?
The listing claims 40psi (2.7bar) for a 26” x 1.95” MTB tyre in one shot, approximately 40psi for an MTB tyre, and 100 psi for a road tyre. These are differing, tyre-dependent claims and should not be treated as guaranteed results.
Can I leave a CO2 cartridge attached to the inflator?
The manufacturer says not to screw in and store a cartridge in the inflator head until it is needed.
Does CO2 stay in a tyre as long as ordinary air?
The listing says CO2 can escape faster than air and advises topping the tyre up with a pump before the next ride.
