Review on Schwinn Bicycles Volleyball Football Basketball by Tim Wheeler

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Sensor accuracy is terrible, otherwise some nice design features.

Pros: 1. Generally a nice design.2. Comfortable grip.3. Nice big and stable foot.4. Head with both types of valves pointing to the same side and color coded toggle latch indicating engagement.5. The barrel has a large diameter, so filling the tires was quick.6. Large display that is easy to read. Cons 1. The accuracy of the sensor is terrible and that's the main reason I returned it. I may have just had a bad block, but other reviewers may be reporting the same issues, with the gauge reading 8psi lower than the independent tire gauge. When you first connect an inflated tire, the meter will read 0 until you start inflating. Oddly enough, when you pull the knob up, the needle jumps 5-8 psi.2. While the large diameter barrel allows you to get up and running quickly with low PSI tires, I've read several other reviews where you couldn't push the pressure past 80psi despite the 'high pressure' advertised. Bottom line: if you don't care about gauge accuracy and only need to inflate below 80psi, this is a good value. Unfortunately, it didn't meet my criteria.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Nothing here
