Default What air compressor/tire patch do you carry?

Planning a ride end of the month and would like to pack a 12 volt air compressor with me. What brand do you carry?

I keep them in my saddlebags.

I carry the Slime kit; compressor and slime liquid along with plugs and installation tool. The plugs and tool do not come with the kit but are small and do not take up any room at all. By changing the wiring ends on the compressor I'm set up to get power from the battery tender plug as well as cig. lighter or the use of alligator clips on any battery.

just wondering,, when you get a new tire put on do they complain about useing the fix-a-flat or slime? Had a guy tell me one time he didn't care for it because it got all over the rim also, making it harder to put new tire on.

Just a regular plug kit and a hand pump. Hopefully I will never need it.
