Replacement extra long hose

[Gary E]

When I want to pump up the tyres when my bikes are on the bike stand the hose on my Joe Blow Sprint Track Pump is too short so I have to take the bike off the stand to do it.
I’ve seen replacement hoses for track pumps but they’re all about 1m, I need one that’s about 2m.
Does anyone know where I can buy a 2m hose? Preferably one that’s compatible with the Joe Blow pump so that I can reuse the connections without faffing about.
Thanks.

I use a permanently wall mounted 12v electric inflator with a mains inverter. The supply hose had to be extended to feed both my bikes (and for car tyres) and is 5m long. I bought a length of hose plus two straight brass connectors from ebay. This would work in your case.

You will need to be sure of the internal diameter of your sacrificial hose if you decide to proceed.

Thanks gazza1286 but unfortunately that won't fit the pump or the head I need 10mm OD and 3mm ID if I want it to be a straight replacement.

Pump and you up on this. £300 well spent. HTH

Do you need Os or hose, garden hose? Topeak do a kit and my Specialised track pump now has a long hose. I did this probably 10 years ago. Iirc I got the hose, joiner and head valve from Evans. Pretty straight forward really.

I had a look on SJS hose spares section but couldn't quite figure how more hose would join to make an extention. Maybe you'll have better luck - here. tbh SJS being SJS suprised they don't have a roll of the stuff.

So take the bike of the bike stand. Why would one want to pump up tyres while the bike was 'on' the bike stand? Doesn't the bike stand offer a variable height?

Life "is too short so" "take the bike off the stand to do it."

I understand that this is a first world problem but it's just something I'd like to be able to do, that's all.

In the end I gave up trying to find a 2m length of compatible hose and simply bought a spare 1.1m length that I'll join onto the original. Not as elegant a solution as I would have liked but, to paraphrase, "life's too short".
