Cheap source of CO2 cartridges
...know any? eBay seems surprisingly expensive. Local hardware shops?

Isn't the expression "I don't have a dog in this fight", not "knife"? (Sorry, that's just an irrelevant aside.)

Here's an idea for you: two things can be true at once. Shock. The family is a bunch of censorious whiners, and, Rapha was flatly wrong.

It's fine, legit and legal. And fun! Ahem.
A pump. Gives a free source of air for the duration of it's life
Until it breaks... (it's happened to me twice now!).
Point taken though.
Bought from http://www.co2cartridges.co.uk/ last year: 50x 12g threaded for ~£20, split with a mate. Bought in bulk for Paris-Roubaix Sportive, will last me for years of occasional use on cold, dark commutes.
The Lifeline packs on Wiggle are good value. Unfortunately they are currently out of stock - again!

Always use www.tyreinflators.co.uk
Or cook shops would do you, too.
You can get nitrous cartridges in bulk very easily - google cream whippers and see what pops up. I've got a feeling you can get CO2 from the same places, but that's nowhere near as fun as huffing an innertube full of nitrous halfway through a ride.
I've often wondered if anyone has ever got those cartridges mixed up.
Or has anyone ever used a bike C02 adapter to get huffing some laughing gas?
Really don't want to google that who knows where I will take me.
