Ok, so I hate setting up the air compressor for tubeless setup or maintenance. Tried one of these out and love it. Took seconds to set up 2 new tubeless tires, changed everything!
Yep bought one a few years ago. I didn’t have a good compressor and didn’t want to spend the money on another floor pump. It works great but there are a few on Amazon that have really shitty pump heads. Bought my dad one and it couldn’t lock on to a presta if the valve was removed.

I just go to the gas station and use the compressor there.

I’ve got an Airshot. When it works I love it, but it doesn’t work on every tire. I plan to get a compressor.

Airshot has worked for every tire I’ve mounted. No pump issues, and any tire issues were the rim tape, not the airshot.

I use a Makita cordless electric compressor, and that’s just for when my Silca Terra floor pump (standard pump, no tubeless chamber) can’t keep up. I’ve seated MTB and gravel tires with the floor pump, although the extra speed of the electric pump helps a lot on high volume (2.6”+) tires

Yeah I love mine. Used to go to the shop once a year to get new tires seated.
