ARGGGGGGGGGGG
How do normal sized people manage to put 7 bars in the tubes?
Even if I literally sit on my track pump I can't get the damn pressure up...
I struggle to get it to 7 bars, and I fear the day the pump will break...

Any tips?

better track pump?

100psi shouldnt be that difficult.

Try pushing the valve to break the seal first?

better pump required methinks.

i discovered recently that my mini pump will only just manage 60psi in my mooter tyres.

What size are the tyres? I can put 100psi into a 26x1 tyre with my track pump easily - and my track pump is shite!

My old Topeak suddenly stopped working. Something went wierd in the valve and it was no longer moving air into the tube properly regardless of how hard I lent on it. If your pump's working properly it should be easy.

Thanks bg, I am most amazed it took so much time for someone to get it.
Next time I'll just do a boring what pump for a road tyre;)

I guess a strip and greasing of the pump is in order ๐Ÿ˜€
