is there a way to inflate presta valves with an air compressor?

[fellur]

I'm purchasing a wheelset that is made for presta valves only. I don't want to drill the holes to fit schrader valves. So, as the title states, is there a way to inflate presta valves with an air compressor?
All answers would be greatly appreciated.

Made this myself nearly 30 years ago; still works today in my garage.

I've got the Prestaflate thing on one of my compressors. Its not worth the money. Just use a Presta-to-Schraeder adapter and you'll be fine. They cost almost nothing and you can secrete one in your bike tool kit no problemo, which is what I do.

Here's what I bought. A bag of 10 of them for $5.89. Enough to spread around your bike fleet, tape one to something on your compressor just in case etc.

Yep just get the presta adapter and inflate with compressor or floor pump.... just make sure you take the adapter back off and close the valve back up before you ride....they loose air really fast if you bump the valve. I just leave mine on the valve for storage so I don't have to look for it later

I don't do that because of what it does for wheel balance. Go to your powered wheel and put the adapter on. Get it up in the air and hit the throttle. If the spinning wheel starts bouncing up and down, thats something to consider. If it doesn't then hooray.

Maybe these light aluminum versions are the way to go if the wheel is jumpy per the above. Only $4.99 for 10 of the dam things. I think I'll buy these just to see for myself.
