Topeak Twinhead Bicycle Floor Pump Upgrade Kit
Customer Reviews
I bought this about 3-4 years ago and put it on my Silca floor pump - it always worked ok but not ideal - a bit of a wrestling match to get it off the valve once things are pumped up. By contrast my Zefal hand pump, with its 90-degree on/off lever, is much easier to put on/off the valve. I've even wrecked a tube at least once trying to get this off the inflated tire.
Anyways, last week it died when my partner over-tightened the yellow lever - you're only supposed to turn it 45 degrees, but there's no physical stopper to prevent you from over-cranking it and wrecking the rubber valve inside. Tried taking it apart, but can't see how to fix it. Anyways now it works on the schrader side, but on the presta side the air just blows out the open shrader hole.
A very nice idea, but not quite up to long-term/fool-proof use.
I had a floor pump with a bad nozzle, and really, I couldn't even conceive of a replacement kit until I stumbled across this. The problem it solves might seem somewhat obscure, but more often than not the problem with pumps tends to be the nozzle or the hose; the seals for inflating the chamber usually last quite some time. The usage is well-documented and clear, and I was up and biking in five minutes.
