Pump Adaptor

[Jim77]

I have one of these:

For inflating my car tyres. However, how do I use this on my bike. It doesn't appear to have an attachment that fits. (My bike comes with, I think presta valves). Can you get an adaptor to convert from car tyre size to presta size? I tried a Google search but the results were not clear.

Cheers.

To be honest if you're planning on doing more than the occasional top-up of your bike tyres, you're better off investing in a decent track pump, which will have an accurate gauge and will give your arms and shoulders a workout too! These come with the nozzles for both types of valve. Less hassle with connecting them up to the battery too.

I have a Topeak Joeblow, which is good. There are plenty of others and a few to avoid as well;

Yes you can. It is a little brass thing and think mine cost less than £ 1.00 from my local bike shop
