I was talking about your bicycle that you said you get a lot of flats on. Get the good screw type for your KLX that you rarely get flats on, and continue to use the cheaper non threaded for the pedaler. Do what you gotta do, just tryin to help ya here, not argue. I’m done here, good luck to ya. And the answer is 2 btw.

I'm not arguing either, I'd like to know, cause I don't. I carry 2 20 or 24oz on the bike, I have no idea if that is enough. and of course you heard I couldn't get them to work.

I'm going to have a go at it again when time permits, there is a big list.

I use to carry a co2 inflator. It froze the valve open and I lost all the air when I removed the inflator from the stem. The rest of the day went down hill. I found a small bike pump to carry. 20 pumps fills a tube to 15 psi... works every time. Unlimited air. One less thing to worry about.

That is one hell of a pump if it only takes 20 pumps, I was doing 100 every hour or so.
I'm changing my tires this morning and I found an old pdf of recommendations for caring on the bike and they recommended 4 20oz CO2's.
Still haven't got around to figuring my inflator out yet though, I'm BUSY!

Update, I got the unit to work and it does not need the little pointy thing in the middle.

I got a Lezyne FlexLine MBike pump cause it has a flex line to the valve. If your running tubliss should work, if not it is going to take a lot of pumps as it is only single action and the stroke and bore is kinda like the KLX, very small.
