Does anyone have any recommendations for tiny bike pumps to keep on my commuter? Durability is preferred, but I don’t want to break the bank if it gets stolen.

    I got my daughter a nice accessory for her bike: An electric pump. You can pre-set the target pressure, clip it on, press a button, and it gets gone. It also works as a flashlight and a power bank, so it is actually a useful thing and gets charged up often enough to actually have power when needed.

      This sounds handy, however I’m prioritizing reliability which is hard to beat with a mechanical pump.

        In this case it was more about ease of use. My daughter has difficulties in finding if the tire pressure is right. Just having to press a button and get the pressure right on the first attempt is worth it.
