Pumps for bikes

   Pumps for bikes in Ukraine

For people who like to get to work by bicycle, ride outside the city, or go in for cycling — a manual bicycle pump will become a necessary attribute. If the tire is not hard enough, it becomes difficult to drive and there is a risk of damaging the iron tire of the wheel.

The mechanism is designed to pump the tires of a bicycle, where air enters thanks to a special piston. Bicycle pumps are of the following types:

• hand held;
• portable (floor or foot).

The hand pump is compact and portable. They can be attached to the frame of the bicycle, and also folded into a backpack or basket of a cyclist. The disadvantage is a narrow handle and low pumping performance.

The foot pump is a pump designed for use at home or in the garage, as it is not intended for long-distance travel. The downside is big size, heavy.

It is best to have several pumps — one to use at home, and the second to take with you.

One of the important points of the pump selection is the type of wheel nipple. Nipples come in three types:

1. sports — used on road and mountain bikes. Prior to pumping, the nipple head must be loosened a little.
2. automobile — wide in diameter
3. dunlop Bicycle Nipple — Classic

When purchasing a bicycle pump, a number of factors should be taken into account that will further help facilitate the tire inflation process:

• Material. Bicycle pumps are made of plastic or aluminum. Plastic is a budget and less durable material. Such models are in a low price category. Aluminum alloy construction is more expensive and quality is higher.
• Pressure. Another property of a bicycle pump is its maximum pressure (number of atmospheres). The larger it is, the higher the price.
• Technical safety. Inventory should be strong, reliable, not slip out of your hands during operation.
• Existence of the manometer for adjustment of air pressure.
• Appearance and weight. Apart from professional features, a bicycle pump should be compact, lightweight and like by the owner.
• Transportability. Weight, dimensions, size — correspond to the purpose for which the bike is used.

Additional benefits may include:

• T-shaped handle;
• Dustproof cap;
• Swivel lock
• Compatible with automobile and bicycle nipples.
