Lezyne Twin Speed Drive CO2 Inflator (Black) (w/ CO2 Cartridge) (w/ 16g Cartridge)
Twin Speed Drive CO2 Inflator Description:
The Lezyne Twin Speed Drive CO2 Inflator offers easy and rapid emergency tire inflation in a very compact package. Constructed out of CNC machined aluminum with a slip fit head design, the inflator head will quickly slide on to an open presta valve or a schrader valve to create an airtight seal, and once the head is pushed all of the way on and the CO2 cartridge is unthreaded slightly, there will be a controlled release of the CO2 that will quickly inflate the tire. This inflator head is either available by itself or with a 16g CO2 cartridge, and the included reusable neoprene cartridge sleeve allows the user to hold onto the inflator without freezing their hand.
Note: Use of a CO2 cartridge to inflate a tire is best used in an emergency situation as tires filled with CO2 will lose pressure faster than tires filled with regular air (but will normally last long enough to get you to your destination, barring another puncture). Always use a regular air pump to fill up the bike tires before the next bike ride, and replace any spent CO2 cartridges in your emergency kit so you are best prepared for any future emergencies.

Instructions for use:
- Thread CO2 cartridge clockwise fully into Twin Speed Drive head until the cartridge bottoms out in the head
- Press head of the inflator completely onto either an open Presta valve or onto a Schrader valve, making sure that the head is completely engaged with the valve
- Hold head onto valve and slowly unthread CO2 cartridge by turning the cartridge counter-clockwise until the CO2 starts to fill the tire/tube. CO2 will start to fill the tire/tube after the cartridge has been unthreaded about 1/2 a turn.
- If only using part of the CO2 cartridge, tighten the cartridge all of the way in the head before pulling the head off of the valve.
- Rest of CO2 may be used to inflate another tire/tube if needed during the same ride as the original flat, but after the ride is completed discard of used CO2 cartridge, as remaining CO2 may dissipate out of cartridge before another ride and/or need for another emergency inflation occurs.
- Tubeless tires and tubes/tires filled with sealant will want to check condition of sealant after using CO2 and before the next bike ride. Either clean out old sealant and refill the tire, or top off sealant depending on condition of sealant and the sealant manufacturers recommendations
