Pop, pop! Tubeless tyre seated on the rim
This was my first attempt at converting from innertubes to tubeless, and it was a lot less hassle than I was expecting, due mostly to this Airshot cannister doing the hard work for me. I don't think it would be possible (or at least very hard) to seat tubles tyres without a pressurised tank like the Airshot.I have WTB Proterra Light i23 rims and WTB Resolute 700c x 42 tyres. These are already taped and set up for tubeless. I removed each innertube and installed Peaty's Chris King Tubeless MK2 Valve, removed the valve core with the included remover, then screwed the connector from the Airshot Tank onto the de-cored valve. The tank is very simple to operate with a lever that allows you to pressurise the tank, then you quarter-turn the lever and it dumps the air into the tyre in one go.It took me a couple of attempts to seat the tyre, due I think to not putting enough pressure in the tank first time, as I only pumped in 100psi, and when I let the air out of the Airshot, it didn't pop all of the tyre onto the rim. Second time, following the instructions (!) which suggested 160psi, worked well and gave me two more pops as the tyre seated itself fully.I then unscrewed the connector and poured in 120ml - they suggest you use 2x the tyre width plus 30ml, so that's 84+30 = 114ml - of Peaty's Holeshot (I sound like an ad!) down the flexible tube that fits neatly over the valve, then reinstalled the valve core, worked the sealant around the tyre, and inflated to about 60psi.I repeated the process on the second tyre, and all is good with no leaks.The alternative to the Airshot was to spend £130 on a new specifically designed pump, but my track pump is good enough, and the £55 for the Airshot tank, whilst a lot of money for a cannister, actually feels worth it.

It works - kind of.
OK so the good stuff: it works (kinda). couldn't inflate my wife's tubeless Road tyre after deflating to insert more sealant. Using thus bottle it popped back onto the rim first time.Secondly it was delivered. I know that might sound like a no brainer but I previously ordered something similar from another manufacturer and after several weeks delay they decided they couldn't and so cancelled my order.I also got this at what I think is a decent price compared to the same offered elsewhere.The not-so-good/questionable. I only got the tyre to pop onto the rim by removing the core. With the valve kept in there doesn't seem to be enough air pressure/volume of air going through the valve to pop on the tyre rim. So then you're left with giving to re insert the core without losing the air. Which I failed to do. Luckily by popping the rim earlier on it seemed to have put the tyre rim into the right grooves so to speak and so made it air tight. This allowed me to inflate with the track pump but I can't help but think I've not done something quite right.Anyway it's solved a problem and I'd be confident in it again to do a job.Jury is still out for me on tubekess generally. Before this I had to put an inner tube in it in order for the wife to use it. Then she gets a puncture in the inner tube over the weekend hence today's efforts.Alls well that ends well tho :)

It worked perfectly!
It worked perfectly!Not really much more to say than that. After wasting ages on a set of really tight wheels/tyres, the first one was done on the second attempt and the second one was easy.

Vital kit for setting tubeless tyres
This works well to set the tyre beads onto the rim. I run 27.5x2.5 MTB tyres, which are almost impossible to set without this. Until I bought it, set up was painful, but now it’s very simple to do with a regular track pump attached to this Airshot. Now I can work much more easily on solving slow leaks and punctures.If you want to run tubeless tyres, this kit is vital - if you struggle with tape and valves, then this Airshot makes the process of setting the tyre much easier, even if you’re out on a trail.

Simply Brilliant!
I was really struggling to get two new Pirelli P-Zero TLR tubeless tyres to seat on Zipp 303S wheels. Watched loads of videos showing simple installation! However, no matter what I did, my new tyres would not seat. Bike shop wanted £60 to do it for me :( Decided to give the Airshot a go and never looked back! In seconds the tyre popped and was inflated. Simple, easy to use money saver if you use tubless tyres.

Worth its weight
Worked like a charm on a pig ignorant 29er, 2.4 used tire. Filled it it up to 120psi, removed the valve core, threaded in the valve adaptor, screwed on the tube and opened the valve. That sweet sound of beads popping was music to my ears. I left the pump attached as it needed about 3 or 4 pumps to fully seat the bead. Perhaps more psi in the canister would have solved that. Very well made, no issues with bent presta valves, dented cans etc. My tire was also full of sealent which was no issue, no mess made. Highly recommended.
