You can use a small air tank to allow quick deployment, if you need air at all. I highly recommend a two-part mechanical sequence that feels like pulling the handbrake on a car. Initially, you use a long, quick motion with a spring to get the landing gear onto the ground, at any slope and able to roll in and out of potholes. Then, just before the bike falls off of plumb, a second mechanism, possibly an over-center cam, clamps the rigid landing gear struts in position.
