Repair stands and CO2, at volume
CXWXC appears twice on this site, in two unrelated categories.
The CXR10 aluminum repair stand, which is the best-selling stand in this catalog, and a twenty-pack of CO2 cartridges with a 2-in-1 head.
Aluminum construction on the stand. Lighter to move than steel and it does not rust, which matters in a damp garage. Combined with a 100–160 cm height range — the tallest here — and a 360° rotating clamp.
Bulk value on the cartridges. A five-cartridge kit and a twenty-cartridge pack cost about the same. If you have decided CO2 is how you fix punctures, buying twenty stops the reordering.
The stand publishes no load rating, on the model that sells the most in its category. CXWXC states suitability for e-bikes without giving a figure, where the Tarpofix in the same hub publishes 50 kg (110.2 lb).
If you have an e-bike, buy the stand that publishes a rating.
CO2 cartridges are pressure vessels and are commonly prohibited in airline baggage — check the specific airline rather than assuming.
20 × 16 g (0.6 oz) threaded · 100% recycled steel · 8 cm (3.1 in) each · 2-in-1 head
A bulk pack of twenty 16 g (0.6 oz) threaded cartridges in recycled steel, supplied with a 2-in-1 head fitting both Presta and Schrader.
Best for: Clubs, households with several riders, or anyone who has settled on CO2 and wants to stop reordering.
