anyone every actually pumped a tire with it?

Yes, I have one. Works, but be prepared for some serious hand/palm pain after! Takes about 5,678 strokes to fill a tire :slight_smile: Completely useless to fill a MTN bike tire I have found out …

dude! are you serious? like how long did it take to get good pressure?

Would work OK if filling a 650c 19mm tire :slight_smile:

takes several minutes of frantic pumping to fill a 700c 23mm tire with reasonable “firmness”. Would take at least 10 mins to fill the large volume of a MTN bike tire.

I carry one on long rides as an emergency back up after I use up my C02, spares, patches, etc. In other words, 2-3 flats in 1 ride. Not very likey, but the thing is really small
