Aventon teamed up with Fanttik to accelerate the public rollout of Fanttik's award-winning 'X8 Apex' digital inflator. This is a simple device with a long list of convenient features for users of e-bikes, cars, and even basketballs. The battery-powered digital inflator easily connects to any air injection port, at which point the amount of air flowing through it can be controlled with a physical button display.

The device features car, motorbike, bicycle, and sporting equipment modes where it will automatically fill the target until it reaches a preset PSI value. The PSI value is optimized for each device, since car tires and basketballs require a different level of air pressure. According to Fanttik, the X8 Apex can fill a bicycle tire from deflated to full in approximately 20 seconds, and it can fill a full-size car tire in roughly five minutes, which is incredible given its small form factor and easy portability. The X8 Apex is an undeniable asset for travelers with nearly any tool that requires pumped air.
