Bought this while I was on a trip because I forgot my regular pump. I don’t think it’s ever been used to inflate a tire. Very small, alloy construction, with a gauge. Inflates to low pressure for big, Riv-ish tires, or higher pressure for your roadie friends. Easily fits in a seat bag, back

Bill, Did anyone answer your query about why the rapid rise is perfect for stem shifters? My guess is it so you can upshift or downshift front and rear simultaneously with one hand. Ray -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
