Tumbleweed Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 Had a customer the other day who was asking about CO2 bombs. He did some off-road riding and said the ones he used for that were refillable.

V12man Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 I don't think there is enough space in a small bomb for the refillable valve - paintball canisters are refillable....

RexFuzzle Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 I speak under correction but I think they are above 6bar and then you need some special licences to deal with that.
American Flyers Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 Why don't a bike shop get machine to refill up, so that we can only pay R5 to refill instead of paying close to R20 and dump it to waste!!! Â Caerus 1
GLuvsMtb Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 Why don't a bike shop get machine to refill up, so that we can only pay R5 to refill instead of paying close to R20 and dump it to waste!!! Does USN refill your energy bar wrapper after you've used it? MTBc, Daybreaker and KENDA 3
Agteros Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 Because most roadies would blow themselves up trying to re-fill them! Just imagine all the slime over the country side with botched bombings by MTB'rs!
Christopher Brunsdon Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 There is a brand that you can buy a canister that you fill with air, cannot think of the brand right now. Canister fits into your cage. Looks similar to the Genuine Innovations Big Air. Would really like to get something like this.
Christopher Brunsdon Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 While trying to google for the canister, I came across this howto to make your own:Â http://fizzgiz.com/StevePages/HowTo.htm
Gunzo Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 It would actually be nice to have a canister that can inflate to you're own preferance. Because a 16g is just to much for a 700x23C tyre. I inflate mine to 120PSI, where a "bomb" will inflate to 130PSI. It will be nice to have canisters specially for the pressure you require.  16g CO2: 700x23-130 PSI700x25-120 PSI650x20- 180 PSI650x23-170 PSI12g CO2:700x23 - 94 PSI700x25 - 90 PSI650x20 - 125 PSI650x23 - 110 PSI
