Having read the other reviews, I understand the comments that it isn’t very big and isn’t necessarily particularly stable due to the base, and it’s not very easy to get your feet on either side. Other reviewers have said that it’s perfect for a teen maybe, but I am 5 foot 7 and found it very easy to use.
I like the pressure guage as well as you have something to aim for… and something that tells you when to stop.
It takes very little effort to pump the tyres, and that’s exactly what you want. I think I inflated a completely flat tyre in maybe 10 pumps, which beats the 50 plus with a small hand held pump. I also like that it’s small and compact, and you could easily put it in a backpack on a day out. I still have a small hand held pump but I have a feeling, it has just been relegated.
I received this item via the Vine Programme and here is my honest and unbiased review.
Great little pump for bikes, balls, homemade rockets etc.
Very nice product easy to read the psi.
Thinking if using it to create a pressure pot!!
Excellent!
4 stars!
This track type pump works well and has no problems pumping bicycle tyres up. Nice to have the ability to pump shrader and presta tyres up.
In use the pump is fine and easier than a conventional hand pump. The size makes this a little more difficult to use if you tall (Im 5ft 10″ and had to bend over to pump). That said, the smaller size compared to larger track pumps also means it takes up less space if you want to take it out and about in the boot of the car etc.
4 stars from me. It works well and is good value for money.
Its not one of the larger type trackpumps so is definitely smaller than what you are used to. But not so small thats its impossible to use. Its the kind of small where you could handily keep it in your van or car for your days out on the bike at trail centres/parks etc.
I wouldnt personally use it in the workshop as being that little bit shorter it makes it a bit more of a hunched affair using it, depending on your height. In relation to that the base is pretty narrow so getting both your feet on either side to stablise can be an issue for really tall larger footed individuals.
Those points aside this thing works really well, does a good job of inflating both presta and schrader mtb or road tyres. The pressure guage is legible and gives you a decent idea of the pressure.
Happy to have this as my go to day-ride-in-the-van-pump for when I cant be bothered to fiddle with the mini pumps or carry the big full on track pump.
