did you ever find one? Mine's getting kinda old and slipping a bit. Could be time to replace it...Anyone bought a presta inflator for a compressor off Ali? Anyone recommend one? The Park INF-2 is $250 AUD which is ridiculous. The Prestaflator Mini would be ideal but they're still $70 AUD for some reason.
Don't need a built in gauge, just a Presta head for a compressor

No I haven't yet, although following the link @Bikael Molton posted I found this one which looks like it might tick the boxes.did you ever find one? Mine's getting kinda old and slipping a bit. Could be time to replace it...
I really didn't like this type of head...Lezyne-style screw-on presta head. (Yes, I'm aware of the valve unscrewing issue with those too.)
I use a small c clamp from harbor freight that I ground the head down to fit in the calipers. Do 1 piston at a time.Any of you ebay / Ali experts find a Chinese knockoff of the $90 SRAM Ultimate Piston Spreader yet? Looks like a nice tool, but no way I'm paying $90 for that.
You probably got one of those salvaged from the recycling containers @canadmos just posted (?)I had to locally rebuy the XT rear mech I bought from aliexpress, not because it was counterfeit but because they shipped it in just a bag and it got bent in some way I couldn’t figure out how to bend back and it never shifted right. New one shifted fine.

Nah, those are legit, but if you look at the back the model/serial number/lot number has been sanded off. We used to buy a lot of Shimano parts and SRAM brakes from ebay sellers about 5-7 years ago.woody on here bought an XT derailleur setup through ali or ebay or something and didn't want to run it because he thought it was fake. It looked like the best damned replica I had ever seen- I couldn't tell it from a real one with both in hand. I know that there are some very high end knockoffs out there, but I have some doubts that most of the branded stuff sold on there is "off-the-truck" real.
yeah mine even has the same weird green grease in it that the local one did.Nah, those are legit, but if you look at the back the model/serial number/lot number has been sanded off. We used to buy a lot of Shimano parts and SRAM brakes from ebay sellers about 5-7 years ago.
They were most likely bought by generic commuting bike brands and then resold outside the APAC area via ebay.
No friends in the trade? it's definitely worth £40.Any of you ebay / Ali experts find a Chinese knockoff of the $90 SRAM Ultimate Piston Spreader yet? Looks like a nice tool, but no way I'm paying $90 for that.
That green/clear/neon grease that comes on Shimano stuff is magical. I don't know how many times I have hosed off my bike, but I bet if I took the crank off, that stuff would still be packed in there.yeah mine even has the same weird green grease in it that the local one did.
I think I remember Rockshox forks with their serial numbers sanded off being sold on Facebook in my country a few years ago.Nah, those are legit, but if you look at the back the model/serial number/lot number has been sanded off.
