Blackburn Mountain Air Mountain Bike Pump

March 18th, 2010

Blackburn Mountain Air Mountain Bike Pump




Value is king, and the Mountain Air has it in spades, with a high-volume aluminum barrel and sleek shape. The ergonomic head and handle melt into the contours of your hand to increase grip and leverage when in use. Max Pressure: 90 psi / 6.2 bar. Barrell Material: Aluminum. Weight: 148 g / 4.9 oz.

I like the screw on/off mechanism for changing back and forth from schrader to presta. Nice if you have bikes with different valves in the family. The grey plastic chamber makes a nice seal over both of these valves too. It’s a good pump to have on the road/trail for emergencies for a good price. Ride on!

4 Stars Almost perfect
I really like this pump. It is small, easy to use, inflates my bike’s tires in just a few pumps.

What I don’t like about it is the hardware that attaches it to the bike’s frame. It uses Velcro straps and they allow the pump to slip out every now and then (not all the way out, e.g. it did not fall on the road, but enough to start interfering with pedaling). It happened to me once or twice, so it is not a real issue, but if it keeps happening, I may need to come up with a fix for the mounting hardware.

5 Stars It is so good
This small hand pump resolve problems and it is so easy to carry on with you.

5 Stars Space Saving and Effective
This pump works great for typical maintenance of your bike. Unless you are pumping up bike tires all day long, who needs a floor pump that takes up space and cost twice as much or more. This little guy is simple to use, feels sturdy in my hands, is easy to stow, and carries a good warranty. I would definitely recommend this pump.

5 Stars Great value, nice pump…lifetime warranty!
At about 10.5″ there are smaller frame-mounted pumps out there, but the price is right for the Blackburn Mountain Air.

The pump output is great, and it feels sturdy while pumping. It’s relatively easy to switch between Schrader valves and Presta valves by swapping the orientation of the two inner valve components.

This pump mounts to the frame through the water bottle holder screws, and the mount includes a removable Velcro strap. Two spare screws (with hex heads) are also included if you need them.

With a lifetime warranty, you can’t go wrong. If you want a smaller frame-mounted pump with less output, try the Blackburn Shorty.

4 Stars Just what I expected
Even though I haven’t used the pump yet I can tell that it is very lightweight so I can carry it with me all the time. Quality of it also seems to be very good. Bottom line, good relation of quality and price.
