Portland Design Works BARkeep CO2 Inflator
Best discreet tool for cyclists who value a clean bike aesthetic.
This inflator solves the biggest headache of CO2 systems: the guesswork. By combining a precise pressure gauge with a controlled tap-handle, it eliminates the risk of over-inflation while protecting your fingers from freezing. It is a smarter, more deliberate way to get back on the road.
