Dear Friends,
I tried searching in the forum for a good Foot Pump / Floor Pump which can be used for pumping air in my bike & cycle, but did not find any suitable posts so posting this thread. The pump should have a pressure guage which displays the pressure while filling air.
I am planning to buy a foot pump or a floor pump, but confused as to whether a foot pump is more powerful or a floor pump for filing air in bike tyres.
In online they have footpumps from 200 rs to 1400 rs so very confused as to which one to buy the local stores has footpump at 400-700 Rs and hand pumps from 200 onwards.
If anyone of you is using foot pumps please mention the brand name of the pump so that I can go to local stores and check out the brand and test it and buy. In online even though the price is cheap I feel it wont make sense to order and if it doesnt work again replacements hassles will be there. I am in Chennai so if you can recommend any good branded pump available in Chennai shops it would be great.
Some good branded floor pumps I found in flipkart they are much costlier than foot pump but they are branded, so if they can fill air in bike tyre also it would be great.
EG:
Btwin FLP 5000 Bicycle Pump - Buy Btwin FLP 5000 Bicycle Pump Online at Best Prices in India - Cycling | Flipkart.com
In the local stores I saw Payal Foot Pump which cost Rs.650/- and when checked online found its indian co, and having the ISO etc requirements. So shall i go for 650/- rs pump or a normal 350 rs pump?
I will use this pump only for filling air in cycle tires, as for bike tyres while filling fuel I get them inflated for free , give 2 rs tip,and if someday the bike gets punctured at home will use it to fill so that can drive to nearest puncture shop,.
So if you are using any foot / floor pump please put your views
