Introducing different types of bike pumps
Without going into too much detail, two main categories of bike pumps are easily distinguishable. They are hand pumps and floor pumps.- As you would expect, hand pumps are compact, which makes them an easy companion on your rides. They can be fitted on your bike’s frame or simply stashed in a pocket or a bag. Since they can’t produce very high pressure and they require some space for carrying, they are better suited for mountain bikes – tires are running on lower pressure and spaces are ampler.
- Floor pumps or stand pumps are best suited for road bikes, since they require higher pressure. With a floor pump you can swiftly inflate a tire to 7 bars. The downside is their size, especially for the road bikes where space is scarce. Because of their bulkiness floor pumps are difficult to be taken with you on rides.
- That is where the CO2 cartridges come in more than handy. They are a great alternative to bike pumps and can save your day since they can inflate a tire to high pressures extremely quickly. So, sound advice is never to go on a ride without one or two.
