Bicycle Pumps

The Essential Accessory - the Bicycle Pump

Keeping your tyres pumped up makes cycling easier! Bicycle tyres roll faster as tyre-pressure increases.


For effortless pumping up to the maximum recommended pressure, get a floor-standing Track Pump.
Pack a smaller bicycle pump to carry with you for emergency use. Pack a spare inner-tube as well.

  • Make sure your pump will fit your valves.
  • Car-valve type are called Schrader valves.
  • High-pressure bicycle valves are called Presta valves.

    Many pumps can do both types of valve.

    Generally speaking, the smaller the pump, the longer it will take to pump-up your tyre.

    Some bicycle pumps are provided with a bracket to mount to your frame - mounting your pump on the bicycle-frame means never leaving home without it.
