Thought I'd put a bi of air into my back tyre with a footpump. Few pumps and then the plastic valve stop on the pump pinged off, air howling out of the tyre, clip stuck to the valve. Managed to get it off. Now only 10psi in the tyre. Don't buy an AA Essentials pump. It's c**p.

    I use a track pump most of the time, the compressor takes more effort to get out

    Just ran out and bought an RAC double-barrel one from Argos. £17.99. Hardly any effort and done in no time (well, a lot less than driving to the nearest free air anyway). Good one!
