At last a quality affordable floor pump ( pomp) that does it all

Drop at Stoke shouldn't of let me hear the difference between silent and older conventional compressor. 

Geez... Silent is the only way to go!!

The silent is barely noticeable in comparison.

I must investigate this a bit.

 

 

"Oil less" does NOT automatically mean silent.  This learnt the expensive way.

 

Would love to know if truly silent units are available in the more DIY sizes..... and cost

This is the one I have. Not silent, but orders of magnitude quieter than the two reciprocating ones I've owned before. I can take calls while it's charging, which is good enough for me.

Thank you

I had the privilege of hearing Droo's compressor in the week. (He gave my Stumpy some TLC - thanks Droo 😎) It really is quiet and a worthy investment to make at not a bad price.

Hopefully some take note of this bit.

 

The price difference between an oil less and a silent unit is NOT that much !!!  Wish I knew this 2 years ago ....

I have a floor pump with tubeless tank.

Sometimes I get lucky, other times I'm using one of these too. 🙈

PS: road tubeless.

The CO2 work for me, I do not own a bike shop, so no need for a expensive air compressor for the 1 or two times a year that I have to seat my tyres.

Adendorff got some nice specials on for August on oil-free silent type compressors.

got myself a lekker torque wrench from them at half the price that TakeEVERYTHING was advertising that same wrench for.
