Wamart pump with patches not working

The pump is quite short, quite thick and cannot generate enough pressure for road or gravel bikes. I bought one for my wife's mountain bike and it fits but doesn't pump as well as my Bontrager mini pump or my similarly sized Lezyne pump. This reminds me of a very poor quality $10 bell pump I bought at Walmart a long time ago. I checked one of the patches, they appear to be foam, not a good sign. I applied it to the bolt hole in the tube, it seemed to seal well so I put the tire back on. Lasted maybe an hour, then it was off to bed. The next morning she was completely flat. It looks like the foam patch stretched from the pressure until it failed and released all the air. You may come home, but I wouldn't want to count on that and it's definitely not a long-term solution.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Ok
