#Askgmbntech can I use my 80 gallon compressor to fill this lol just kidding! Great show as always 👍
*Great air pump **MyBest.Tools** Faster than my old plug in pump and twice as handy without having to drag the cord around.And it works with my existing Ryobi drills battery.*
Recently went tubeless with a non tubeless tyre on a non tubeless rim using a floor pump, it was an experience to say the least haha
FG39v9.1 _ Did it actually work? Lol
@@bradbozarth2680 yep, total pain but they haven't gone down since. Even after thrashing it this past weekend
FG39v9.1 _ that’s cool! I never thought that would be possible. I ate shit yesterday and bent my sprocket and my front wheel all to hell. Lol I’m slightly injured
@@bradbozarth2680 shit sorry to hear, you take a jump wrong? Or did you just pull the front break too hard? Back in my teenage years I done an endo and nearly leapfrogged over the bars haha
FG39v9.1 _ I took a jump wrong like a moron lol 😂
I made one of these from an old fire extinguisher and a broken floor pump. Works great, press the handle and the Tyre is seated. Also use it to clean out hard to get places like in between car seats and inside the tumble dryer.
cool, I wanted to do that myself also. Actually from an old CO2 cartrige for sparkling water machine, but the parts I'd need to buy would add up to almost 30 eur, so I just bought the tyre booster from Schwalbe for 38 :)
How do you charge it with air?
I got one last month for emergency for our fat bikes, as there's nothing worse after a puncture and your tyre is to low, we have No Stans sealant in the tubes , so we aren't tubeless, but having No Stans sealant in has helped a lot, but using the Tubibooster is a God send especially when we do LEJOG in July on our fat bikes unsupported 👍😉
Winning it would finally get me to tubeless! As Doddy said, I didnt want to buy extra stuff just for running tubeless. Especially when you have a nice stash of tubes lying around.
yeah this is a must, there are similar in the market, simple to use, well priced and they also act as a water bottle if you wish, love them
Super nice. I think this Topeak Tubibooster much better resolved design than a Milkit system a couple years ago.
Such a great piece of kit! I want it for my "No old man country" costume next Hallloween!!
Awesome video, and top bit of kit. Good luck to everyone that enters! But you missed a pun at 04:39 Should have said 'Hey Presta' ;) Lol
Turbobooster would be a perfect add-on to my Topeak JoeBlow Race pump. I hope it will be with little help from luck, and perhaps Doddy too 😏
Anyway, thank you guys for the great content on GMBN, GCN & EMBN 👌
Co2 gas really fucks with tyre sealant.... The ice cold gas turns sealant into a solid. OK for an emergency to get home but if used regularly you'll have to replace the sealant. Ask me how I know 👀
Love the show and the tips and tricks....would like to have seen you fill the canister and the tire from flat with sealant and hear it seat !!!
A proper demo is in order or it does not perform ???
I think you mean ‘hey presta’ 4:39 😂
Good morning Doddy .. i think the idea is brilliant .. i would use this one for sure .. and carry the top piece for co2 cartage.
Always as interesting .. :-)
Cheers !!
Good to have one. I always get flat tire while on trail.
Definitely want one of these now!
Such a cool device, thanks for the information I will be getting one of these whether I win one or have to buy it, this is definitely something that I could really use.
Curtis Flat Reality I am going have to save for it myself , so good luck to both of us poor peeps
Suggest an Air Shot...160psi but then few if any track pumps go above that, and air shot has a hose, far more user friendly. Also equal quality..
Whohhhhh that would be much better then pumping :-P yes please and keep the information coming
Your videos have really helped me venture into getting my first mountain bike which has tubeless tyres. I really like the look of the Topeak Tubibooster Tubeless Mini Compressor compared to others e.g. Tubeless Inflation System for the benefits that you pointed out. But I can't see it on sale anywhere, do you know if it's been withdrawn - I can't see any record of that 🤔
You should do a cheap bike to super bike mountain bike like GCN did please
That would be perfect to keep in the car when going on a weekend trip or race. Like if you have to change tyres just bust that bad boy out.
GOOD video and GOOD and helpful information and wish i had one of those several times
What a great idea thanks Doddy
All that sounds good but how are you measuring the tyre pressure?
Yes please, that'll do nicely thank you
What a great bit of kit
How many times do I need to use it for my fatbike?
Wall thickness and lip/opening thickness are two very different things....
Im sorry did I understand Right the Air-Tank itself kann withstand 124 Bar Air Pressure?
Hmmm, curious...odd spec...
someone unscrews the top forgetting its got 200psi in...instant bullet...
What bike pumps can do 200psi? Not many if any...
Most popular tyre sealants are not co2 compatible.
Think Topeak have not thought this through.
Air shot is similar without the downsides or unusable features like 200psi, but with the v useful hose...
I wouldn't say that it acts as a bullet when accidentally unscrewing the top. The air would probably gradually escape and anyways; why would you pump it up and then leave it unused? Doesn't make sense.
The idea of Topeak isn't new though. Schwalbe has one and I have the Milkit Booster of which I have uploaded a video this week. Works alright.
For a 29x2.4 tire you only need 10bars.
OMG they're all making them now .
That is an awesome product!!
Hmmm, could you use it to recharge the air cartridge? Basically, to keep the valve on.
When well be having integrated air tanks in our bike frames?
Hey Doddy and team,
Quick BB question for you- I just changed the BB in my training bike with a Shimano BB-UN55... The non-drive side went in really easily, but the drive side was a right pain, and I couldn't get the outside of the shell to bottom on the BB shell. I couldn't apply any more torque without the BB tool popping out of the drive side.
I used waterproof grease, and my 5 minute test ride was a 1000% improvement on the old BB... But I still feel like that BB shell should be seated on both sides. The only thing I can think is that my BB tool is a bit crappy (a SuperB from about 10 years ago) and might have stopped me from driving the whole way home.
Have I done something wrong, or if this OK?
Thanks for the content, it's always fantastic :-)
great Product. thanks for the video
You can keep Beer in it Too!!
Awesome product
I would have liked to see how u fill the can
Pretty cool little bit of kit. Seems redundant though, given that you could buy an air compressor for near the same price ... given you don’t win one of the 10 giveaways.
Topeak puts quality before production cost cuts to make money. Until they change I'm a life costumer
Good stuff I need to know thank you .
Is there enough air volume for a 26x4.8 fat bike wheel for tubeless installation?
wats the safe end of psi to pop tyers beads on rims
Can it over inflate the tyre how do I know I have the max pressure In ?
Awesome!
Lets get lucky.
The giveaway link is broken lads
an empty compressor is safe for plane travel right?
I had my tubeless tyre go flat a number of times. But I never had an issue pumping it up with a normal floor pump. Is this an issue only for "clean" tyres? with fresh juice in them?
if they are flat but still sit in the rimbed you have no problem - but for a newly mounted tyre you need lots of air very fast and a normal floorpump often isnt able to do the job.
What does the 1 L at 200 psi convert to when put into a 29 x 2.25 tire? Does it come with a chart of pressures to keep users from over pressurizing the tire?
U stop when the beads ping onto the rim, then use normal pump to reinflate tyre one put valve core back in (u remove valve core to seat tyre with these things)
Want one.... 😁
It's strange/disappointing that one of the reasons a mechanical BB gearbox has not been adopted is that frames would all be custom. I look at e-bikes and that's what they are and yet accepted.
why not have an air compressor?
#askGMBNtech Whats the advantages and disadvantages between Coil Shoks and air shocks and Coil Forks and Air forks?
How does it compare to using a compressor?
Harder, as u have to fill it with a track pump. But also portable...unlike a compressore
@@rupedog But in terms of pressure over time. What is the curve?
Can it also inflate inner tubes?
Sean Lowkey yes
I wanna buy this
In the video he shows the inflation of an already bead seated tire, how convenient...And how are you supposed to get 200psi in this bad boy ? Inflate it with a shock pump ?
Wouldn't the valve do the same job with a co2 canister?
It theoretically should, but the challenge would be filling the CO2 cylinder with the valve on it. Having worked in a shop that filled CO2 cylinders in the past, the setup for filling is quite beefy and requires forcing liquid CO2 into the cylinder. Not sure whether this is even possible through the presta valve on this thing.
@Andrew Dodd Yeah, but the issue with tubeless is getting that initial pop. Getting the tyres to seat on the rims. Once that's done you should be fine inflating with a pump. The problem with this Tubibooster is that it costs £50.
@@Jac70 I have the AIRSHOT and was definitely worth the money. It however has a hose and an open close switch which i is super easy to use. The Tubibooster looks harder to use IMO without the hose and having to hold it in place.
@@stuartmoseley TOTALLY agree. Also I am not aware of any/many 200psi track pumps, its hard enough to pump to 160 anyway, 200 would be supremely hard work, and 160 seats a 29x2.6 tyre...maybe useful for plus tyres tho
#askGMBNtech how hard is it to take apart and service your bike. I'm only 14 and Don't have disposal income. I'm worried that I won't have enough skill and will Boch the job costing me my bike.
Man i wish someone would send me a free one of these. 😂
I need this, because my pump keeps breaking.
Tomi, u still need to pump the cylinder up! Too 200psi...good luck with that tho...reaching the 160psi max of nearly all track pumps is hard enough!
@@rupedog My pump is a bad version of a pump that has the cylinder built into it. The hose can't handle the pressure really, but it has no problems pumping up something else than itself.
Can I still win one now? :)

First comment
Strikes mare as more awkward to use than one of the originals the Airshot. And this is more expensive. Trying to get that on a valve is going to be a pain, the hose on the Airshot has got to be a better idea. Only small advantage is the CO2 inflator - but not really... because it'll freeze on a trail!
Save money, buy British: Airshot - www.airshotltd.com/product/airshot-2/
You can thank me later.
They cost the same.
It's easy to get onto the valve.
Just don't screw in the co2 until you need to use it- no freeze :)
😋
Looks like a thermos flask
We call them “Irish thermos” here, lol.
I crashed yesterday and messed myself and my bike all up :(
damn that sucks
game changing shite
Hmmm...spend $50 (less a 15% promo code discount) now OR enter to win with a ~.0000787'ish % chance. Where's that damn VISA card?
Enter, and if not by one or a competitor like an Airshot
BEWARE: DOES NOT WORK for "First Time Seating" of TR light/racing 29er tires (e.g. Maxxis, Schwalbe). I have tried several times to get this to work but it only works when tires had been seated before and have only partial sections separated from the rim. NEVER WORKS FOR BRAND NEW TIRES. It is frustrating. Tried with 100 psi, 150psi, 180psi... 200psi. PROBLEM: Air simply discharges too slowly. My floor pump could get the canister up to 200 psi (which is too high). But it never releases with the rush of air necessary to seat a brand new tubeless tire for the first time.
damn I a couple years late for the giveaway😑
just get a compressor
Who da fuq has the means to put 200psi in there?? 🤣👍
😲🤪hoooooo i need wan
This is not a new product, after seeing the episode over a year ago where this was spotted at a bike show i went looking for it but it was still in development. Found the exact same thing that had been available for some time though, ive had it for over a year and it works perfectly.

Ppap
this and a pump costs more than a compressor, a compressor is 100 quid, i have one here, cost me 97€. a decent pump plus this is more expensive. tired of the gmbn bullshit, you guys sound like a 90'2 mtb magazine, all market crap.
