I have used Michelin pumps for years.
This is the model I have now.
This and an old battery is all I use for car and bikes.

Set your pressure and it stops about 1psi higher. I think that's allows a bit of loss as you fiddle to get the fecking hose off the tyre valve.
Don't leave a tyre to inflate. They assploade with impressive results. 🤣 ____________________ Disclaimer: The comments above may be predicted text and not necessarily the opinion of MCN. |

I have the Michelin one listed above. Worked flawlessly for me for over 5 years. Including pumping up completely flat tyres without issue.
Think I paid around £30 at Halfords, after a cheap pump popped on me. Frustration and a need for one the same day sent me to Halfords
I had a lexus is200 with horrendously corroded wheels, they couldn't keep pressure for more than 2 to 3 days at a time. |

I bought this one when I got a screw in my van tyre.
https://www.screwfix.com/p/ring-metal-digital-air-compressor-with-light-12v/4310h
Used it to pump up my van tyre a couple of times then gave it to my daughter to put in the boot of her car. Comes in a tidy little storage pouch. It pumped my van tyre up to 60psi without getting too hot. The screw-on valve fitting worked well and didn't lose much air.
Would buy again. ____________________ a.k.a 'Geri'

That type are rubbish ( had several, cheapest was £2.50) and are likely to fail (hose, or leaky pump) first use or soon after They do not compare to the more expensive £12 ring ones. |

The reviews seem a bit naff? Who do I trust |
I have dropped off and broken my Michelin tyre inflator and bought this one based on the reviews.
Big mistake - needed to cut of the original chuck and replace it with one from ebay.
Wish I bought again my old Michelin:

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 5 years, 170 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
