fast and under high pressure. The leg could be more stable.

I didn't always have a spare pump with me. I recently bought a used e-bike with tires that weren't very puncture-proof. I had 2 flat tires in 2 weeks. Slow Leaks. This pump saved $60 on Uber rides! Compared to hand pumps, my foot use was quicker, pressure was higher (I felt I hit 60-80psi although I didn't confirm it) and I wasn't tired at all. I just kept pumping every 2 miles until I got to the nearest bike shop to get a tube. Being able to mount it on the head tube was reasonable. Sometimes a commuter or touring bike gets busy, bags, water bottles and locks take up the frame everywhere and the frame is a bit cluttered at times. It competed with nothing for space. what else is attached to the front of the steering column? Even the basket on the steering wheel is in front of where this happens. For designers, the biggest downside is that the pump is NOT stable when you push it down with your foot. it kept tipping sideways no matter how hard I tried to keep my balance. I finally realized I could put the weight of the bike on the little metal foot, which held it up much better but still wasn't stable. Pumping would be 2x faster if it had a wider contact area. PS I immediately ordered strong, heavy, puncture-proof tires. On another bike I rode a full year without a flat tire, which I attribute to the tires. You save a lot of money on Ubers and cameras by spending some money on tires. This pump is just a second line of defense.

Pros
  • Multifunctional and compatible valves
Cons
  • Drill kit
