Compressor

(1/2) > >>

Hightower:
Each time I go out and play I have to swap my wheels over  :(

As I'm getting older and lazier, can anyone recommend a decent, but resonably priced, compressor so that I can just whip the nuts off and on with the least amount of effort, a la Kwikfit?

Thanks for any help.

Paul:
Aldi had one in last week when I went in, 60 ish quid
Also Makro have them from time to time,
I got mine from Screwfix last year 150 quid and
it's the same as the one in Aldi...

Plenty of air storage / output for changing a set of wheels  :wink:

Bush Tucker Man:
Unless you actually require a compressor/receiver why not just buy one of those 12v impact guns (Argos/Machine Mart)

I know a compressor would come in handy for inflating tyres, but it's not quite the thing to take with you on your 'jaunts'

Xtremeteam:
dont buy 1 o the 12v impact guns as they are crap,after its taken you 10 min to do 1 wheel you'le wish u had bought a compressor & air gun

Hightower:
I have to say that I'm a bit wary of the 12v things.  Not sure if they would have enough ooomph - not too worries about it being portable either.

The 240v mains driven wrenches may be an alternative tho  :?
