Can't pretend to be an expert on this but I wouldn't think you need 120 psi when you are only pumping about 30 psi into your tires. So not sure why yours broke. I would think a cheaper bicycle pump might just take longer
@@CarsForNoobs 120 pounds pressure is the rating of the pump you linked to Amazon. I imagine that it is a construction issue to be able to take 30 or 35 pounds of pressure to put in your tire. Anyway I like the idea, and I hope to find one that will work for me.
"It blew up" problem may be that the part that attaches/cupples to the tire (the "chuck") is not wiggled/rotated/pushed euough onto the tire part (the "stem"). If 1st stroke of the pump is very resistant this is most likely the problem.
Great advice. Never thought of using one like that. Thank you 🎉
I tried it with my bicycle pump and it blew up. Is the secret it has to be capable of 120 pounds pressure?
