Customer Reviews: Great pump! July 6, 2010 Daman27 I purchased this pump because I wanted to carry it along with me on rides. It has a very compact form factor and easily fits into a bag. It came with a cover that protects the gauge and head, but it does not really have much of a mount to the bike frame (mine came with zip-ties...). So if you are hoping to mount it to your bike it is a somewhat questionable assembly. Otherwise, I really like this pump. It has a built in pressure gauge, which is great for setting your tires to the correct PSI. It connects easily and can use both "styles" of valve stems: Schrader and Presta. It does take a bit of time to ensure a good connection, otherwise the pump may not seal and will not inflate the tire. However, this is easily accomplished by clasping the pump to the valve stem and adjusting the ring around the valve port until tight and the connection is secure. Lastly, the pump has the ability to do "high pressure" and "high volume". These settings are great! The high volume delivers 100% of the air per stroke and is great when first inflating a tire. As you reach higher pressures, the high pressure function gives less than 100% air per stroke, making it much easier to pump at the higher PSI. I have easily filled my tires to 60PSI; however, I doubt the pump could make it much beyond that. Overall this pump is great for both low and medium pressure tires, has a good gauge (I checked it against another and it is accurate), and easily switches between high volume and high pressure use. I recommend it!
