Q. What is the difference between this and the non Pro Digital Prestaflator?
This contains all the great features of the standard digital model, 77091, but also includes the Pro presta head, our top rated and best selling presta valve head, which has a value of $39 when bought separately making the pro digital a great option for getting the best possible compressor set up.
Q: Do I need an air compressor to use a Prestaflator?
A: Yes, all Prestaflator compressor-based models require an air compressor with a quick-release connector and air hose. The maximum air pressure is limited by your compressor's capabilities. For portable, battery-powered options, see our Prestaflator GO models.
Q: What valve types do Prestaflator tools work with?
A: All Prestaflator models work with both Presta and Schrader valves. Our Pro Presta Head also works with Clik valves
Q: Can I use Prestaflator for tubeless tire setup?
A: Yes! All models feature variable or medium flow triggers for powerful blasts to seat tubeless tires. PRO and Digital models include our Quick-Click2™ or Big Angle Presta Head specifically designed for tubeless applications with or without valve cores removed.
Q: Can I take tire pressure readings without inflating?
A: Yes! PRO and Digital models with the 2-way head allow you to check pressure without being connected to the compressor. Simply push the hose toward the head to activate the Presta valve.
Q: Can I use Prestaflator for low-pressure applications?
A: Yes! The variable trigger and accurate gauges (especially digital models) make Prestaflator excellent for low-pressure applications like fat bikes, beach cruisers, and air mattresses (with blower tip).
Q: What if my compressor uses a different connector type?
A: The Prestaflator body has a 1/4" male threaded adapter compatible with many connector types including I/M (included), Auto (T-style), ARO (A-style), UK, German, Euro, and Japanese. Simply swap thecoupler.
