ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for bead seating a tubeless tire onto a rim. Two separate reservoirs are provided with an inflation reservoir being at a slightly lower pressure than a charging reservoir. Both reservoirs are filled at the same time via a pressure differential valve. A push button causes the pressure to change slightly in the charging reservoir. A quick release valve, sensing the slight pressure change, substantially instantaneously releases the air in the charging reservoir. The release of air permits a piston to slide thus substantially instantaneously releasing the air in the inflation reservoir which is channeled to a nozzle which seats the bead of the tire on the rim.
