Setup, Compatibility & Care
The pump includes a 2-point mounting bracket designed to fit underneath your bicycle's bottle cage, ensuring it is always ready for a ride. To maintain the pump, keep the interior piston lubricated by occasionally applying a small amount of silicone-based grease. If the pump struggles to maintain a seal on the valve, check the internal valve rubber for debris or signs of wear. If damaged, these rubber inserts are replaceable, ensuring you do not need to discard the entire unit.
