Lezyne Floor Drive

leaflite

I just bought a lezyne classic dirt floor drive pump. (I'm a tart )
I don't know if I'm being thick or something, but the hose doesnt appear to have any rotating sections, so it isn't possible to screw the end onto a valve without massively twisting the hose? This doesn't seem right for a £40 pump?


Thanks in advance for any advice

Should have. Must have.

Mine has a brass coloured adaptor on th'End of hose which is reversible and screws onto the valve without twisting the hose

Thanks all

By the brass coloured bit do you mean the one with the bleed button? On mine, the threads are such on this part that when you screw it onto the valve, the same motion loosens the connection at the other end to the hose?

I have a lezyne hand pump. It works best if you screw that adaptor onto the valve and then screw the pump onto the adaptor.

The problem I am having is that no part of the pump rotates, so if you do that, on screwing the end of the hose onto the adaptor, you get a twisted hose

If the tube does not rotate it may be faulty and in that case send it back for an exchange / refund
