Hand pumps are worse because?
-
Using a full sized pump on my tires takes a while to fill. If I tried to use a mini-pump, it would take ridiculously long. If I'm just casually riding and have time to spare, no problem. If I'm commuting to work, I could see the benefit of the time savings.
-
Would you still carry a pump or C02?
-
I don't carry a pump or CO2 on this bike. Never tried CO2. Not sure how many cartridges I'd even need. But a mini electric bike pump would be a lot smaller and don't look like they'd much more expensive than cartridges.
-
What wheels btw?
-
The tires are HEB Allscape 26" x 4" I think? Wheel is still whatever the oem wheels are. Swapped to them pretty recently. Didn't get any flats with the OEM tires either. Probably about 2400 miles and one broken arm on this particular bike so far. Definitely keep a pump on my roadbike and hybrid.

Oh wow, yeah that sounds like a lot of air. I have 20"x4" as my fattest tire but it only runs at 15 psi (it also broke my arm lol, but that was a faulty front fender courtesy of the ENGWE corporation).

They take effort I guess?
I still use hand pumps though lol

Same here, Topeak Morph has become my go-to for a travel pump.
