Review on ๐Ÿšด PRO BIKE TOOL Mini Floor Bicycle Pump: Super Fast Tire Inflation for Road and Mountain Bikes by Mike Brumfield

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great product, with a must-have DIY mod

Just received. Nicely done. I've clipped or ripped off too many roadside Presta valves with my other rigid close coupled pumps. So I looked for a mini pump with a hose to isolate the power of the pump from the pipe valve. This one does it with good ergonomics: 1. Nicely rounded handle2. Foldable footrest3. Good swivels (2) on the hose and a hose that is soft enough to position in any position without kinking or stressing the hose valve when inflating is my number one priority. As well as thought out, the product has an unsolved but easily solvable problem. The hose is designed to be held securely by inserting the valved end into a slot in the handle. The problem is that they fit too loose and slack on rough terrain and/or make an annoying rattle. With a near perfect product, I'm ready to find a solution. That's it: cut a piece of old hose about 1/2-1 inch, slip it onto the handle, then tuck the hose underneath and put the valve back in its slot (see video for how the tremors settle down and remain reliable). . When you need to use it, simply stretch the band of the inner tube and pull the end of the tube with the valve out of the band. Leave the tape on the pump piston rod as it doesn't interfere with pumping at all. Ready. Highly recommended, no news is good news in terms of durability unless I update the review.
