There is nothing more deflating when you are traveling around on your bicycle than to have it end up with a punctured tyre. Of course, if you happen to be travelling solo, then do take note that you should ensure that you are equipped with the right tools and proper knowledge on replacing or patching up a punctured tyre. One of the tools would be a tyre pump, but the traditional model can be rather bulky and unwieldy. This unique design might just change things – reinventing the wheel, so to speak, where it is known as the AIRSUPPLY.
The AIRSUPPLY is revolutionary in a sense where it replaces your bike’s seat post, and this will include more than just the pump, as there is also an inline air pressure gauge and a pouch for holding the air hose, in addition to an LED taillight. There is also a twist lock on the device that ensures it remains dormant until called upon, and when that happens, riders can unlock the pump in double quick time, from where you can inflate your tyres by pumping the seat. The device adds just 480g /16.9oz to the bicycle’s weight, although it has a performance level of cranking pressures up to 116 PSI which should be more than adequate for casual cyclists.
