So I've ordered this one from Amazon......mains (or lighter socket) operated, thousands of positive reviews, and on a deal at €50. The wife reckons she knows how to operate it! I hope that's not going to be like that set of screwdrivers you ordered when it arrives 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will still pump up one 4x4 tyre but is getting weaker all the time. Shame as it has been very convenient. I still have my Aldi 12v one that works from a cig lighter socket but I am loathed to fit an ugly lump like that to my bike. Also a bit bulky to carry on the bike. I’m tempted to get one of those that work off a drill battery. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saul Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Fuck it this thread has jinxed mine as well, just went out to check my tyres for work tonight and it died. Had to go back to old faithful. Mine was £18 quid as well probably lasted six months. As Pete would put it POS. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's steady and solid acceleration you want, not rapid and agile acceleration. Weight and dense mass instead of unstable lightness! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
