i run a hose to my mouth and blow really hard when i want to shift. :lol i'm sorry, i couldn't help it. you should be able to fit a 9oz. bottle in the tail. it looks cleaner that way.

you would have to buy a McIntosh, Hardcore Cycles, or Adams type arm. they have air tanks built-in. McIntosh also builds tanks into stock arms as well. i think Thompson's Custom Cycles and a couple others does that too. if you can't afford the arm, a 9oz tank in the trunk is the way to go though.

Some of us have on board compressors. So when its time to run we jus pump the pressure up till around 140psi to ensure it shifts properly. Others have like an air hose and pump air str8 into the arm rather than use the compressor to pump air up.
