The Firefox Mini Pump is made of alloy and is light in weight while being sturdy and durable.

The compact sizing of this pump makes it an ideal accessory to have while on a ride. This bicycle pump is available in a single colour.
The Firefox Mini Pump is designed to be compact while being highly efficient. The 6063 T6 Aluminium Barrel provides higher efficiency per stroke i.e. more air per stroke, thus reducing the time taken to inflate a tire. The foldable T-handle enables more power while inflating the tire. The bicycle pump comes with a mount and a strap that allows mounting of the pump on the frame of the bicycle. This allows it to be easily accessible while on a ride. The reversible Presta and Schrader option makes it an ideal all-round, versatile bicycle pump, that can be used for most bicycle tires.
Overall Rating
A bicycle pump is a handy accessory to have access to while on the road. This Mini Bicycle Pump from Firefox priced at Rs.910 (as on 7th May 2019) fits the bill for a compact, durable, efficient and easy-to-use bicycle pump. This is a must have accessory for cyclists who ride both long and short distances, on a regular basis. A major benefit of having easy access to a pump while on a ride, is that in case of an emergency where one needs to top up their tire pressure or fix a flat, it can be done on the spot, without having to cut into your ride.
