tire pump

Bicycle floor accessory

A tire pump is a device for inflating tires by forcing air through a valve.

Hand-operated pumps use a piston and cylinder; electric or battery-powered versions do the work automatically.

Most cyclists carry a compact tire pump; drivers often keep one in the trunk for emergencies.

I need to borrow your tire pump—my front tire is low.
