Well......
Last week I had a tubeless related accident with my "trusty" ghetto pop bottle inflator. Yep, it went pop at about 80psi while trying to seat a stubborn tyre. Result was tyre still un seated and a broken little finger and part severed tendons in my middle and index fingers on my left hand - I was holding the exit tube of the bottle closed at the time . The title of this thread has become very appropriate for me!
It was a bottle I've been using for a year or so , whenever a track pump alone wouldn't work, and I wonder if that contributed - old bottle, plastic degraded, possibly scratched, weakened from many pressurisation cycles, etc, etc hindsight is a wonderful thing etc, etc lesson learnt the hard way .
Just posting this as a warning just in case anyone else is using this method . I've now taken delivery of an Airshot , which originally seemed expensive, now seems cheap.
