Thanks alot, I tried the search feature but couldn't seem to find the answer.

I carry a tiny one sold here in OZ under tha "BBB" brand - it's essentially just a valve that screws onto the presta cap at one end and takes a screw-in CO2 bulb at the other - works a treat and takes up no room.
Zefal make a pretty good one that strap-mounts to the bike and holds two on-board CO2 bulbs.
For Tris I'd go for 16g rather than 12g bulbs for higher pressures, and I always carry a conventional pump as well as the CO2 in case of multiple flats.

I appreciate your reply, this is the type of info that I am looking for.
