I have the one for airbeds, it's a bit fragile. I've rebuilt it twice because the return spring mechanism is a big rubber band that came off.
I don't think I would rely on one for pumping tyres.0 -
Wow, never seen this before. Looks like a great idea if it works as stated and is well manufactured. Thanks for posting, i'll have to research this one tooIron Horse Azure Expert

I bought one of these when they first came out. Seemed like a good idea.
However, you need quite a few 'strokes'/pulls to fill a MTB tyre to pressure. I think they're more suited to narrow/low-volume road tyres.
And the pull cord started to fray after a short while.
In fact I got so fed up with it I gave it away to a roadie!
Just carry a Blackburn Mammoth now, which is easy to use and reliable. And track pump at home (which has a gauge). TBH (as I am lazy) I just pump the tyres until they feel hard enough.
