"The Recon Mini debuted in early 2025 and was followed up later that year by the lighter-weight Recon Mini SL with an aluminum Presta head that saves 30 grams."
"Viair now sells the Viair Recon Mini and Recon Mini SL with Clik heads, expanding their compatibility with the popular Clik valve system."
"The brass Clik head threads on in place of the existing Presta head, and it weighs a claimed 15 grams."
"While the number of electric mini-inflators has grown exponentially in the past year and a half, we haven't really seen many solutions for carrying them on the bike."
Viair has been producing air compressors since the late 1990s, expanding into the cycling market with portable electric mini-inflators. The Recon Mini and the lighter Recon Mini SL, featuring an aluminum Presta head, were launched in 2025. Both models are compatible with the popular Clik valve system, with prices set at $137 and $148 respectively. Additionally, Viair offers a Clik head for existing pumps and has introduced carrying solutions for these inflators, addressing the growing demand in the cycling community.
