Truflo Airess Track Pump


SO GOOD…
The head on the Airess is great – a super-simple metal design that just requires you to unscrew and flip the end round to change between valve types. It also has a bleed nipple for accurate inflation. Despite the gauge going up to 240psi, the numbers are easy to read from a distance and the pressure marker can be rotated easily before pumping to point at the right pressure.

NO GOOD…
The pump lacks puff, taking the most strokes in this test to get up to pressure. While the head is great, a larger lock mechanism would help. The Truflo has the most basic wooden handle on test.

30 strokes to 30psi

PRICE: 91$
