socalhodaka 104 Posted November 25, 2008 When I ask about flat repairs on the trail last week, the Second Wind Pump was recommended by a few of you. I like the option of bottle and hand. I found a place to get them for 26.95, is this a pretty good price? Thanks Kelly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I carry two pumps, though, because all of the bicycle pumps seem cheap, and easily broken... I've always "saved" the CO2 feature for when I'm really hot, really tired, or need to seat a bead...

Spaugh 1 Posted November 25, 2008 When you need extra CO2s, you can buy a big box (for BB guns) at walmart or sport authority for cheap. Don't buy them at REI or bike shops, they charge an arm and a leg. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TrophyHunter 15 Posted November 26, 2008 Paid about the same for mine. That and other stuff ordered from Cyco. Should be here any day. Thx for the original post...it made me take some inventory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joliet 0 Posted November 26, 2008 Next time you (all of you) mount a new tire in your garage, I recommend taking a few minutes to do a practical test of your pump and the rest of your equiptment that you carry on the trail. I hope I never have to pump a tire up with a second wind pump again, not that it won't do it, it just takes so much more time and work than I imagined it would. Carrying an extra few Co2 cartridges is so much easier and faster. Ken Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They do look different and don't have threads at the top, but they still work fine. Ken Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
