Weight Weenie Floor Pump
May 26th, 2017, 9:14pm
 
You might ask why anyone would worry about the weight of their floor pump.  I mean its not really going with you- -- or would you?
 
My QV came with a floor pump made in china that is actually lighter than the Lense frame pump I usually carry ...   I found them for $18 bucks making it 5 times cheaper too.  https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Bicycle-Bike-Pump-Portable-Pump-Black-Gold-Silve r-Frame-Mounted-Pumps-For-Presta-Valve-Schrader-Valve/32805173194.html
 
Here's the weigh in --    I don't know how long it will hold up or anything but dang its so much easier to pump tires with.

I was thinking about something like this to carry in my Quest. Like to know how it works out for you.

Not that I'm thinking of jumping in or anything --  I've been talking to the chinese company that makes them about ordering some .. the minimum order is 24 at a price of (USD equivalent)   of $8 each or $12 with the built in  gauge ..   So I might likely have a bunch real soon ..  I'm going to go visit them next week while i'm in china for other business.   They will also provide extra rings and seals for a few bucks ..   This really looks like an ideal velo pump as the size isn't a problem, just toss it back in the shell ..

As usual just let me know if you become a dealer!
