115psi that's a lot ?
I have a pump just like that my hybrid tyres have a 50-80 psi but I get to about 40 something and the pump just like hits a wall it won't go anymore ?
I true that with a hand pump and the same thing it just stops and to pump anymore suddenly seems like it's near impossible or if I use more force I might explode the inner tube or something . -
Bob stoops! I didn't know you rode!

Thanks guy! I wished I had watched this Friday. I was all pumped up to go riding on my son in laws Fuji. It's a really good bike. Unfortunately what wasn't pumped up were the tires and I was not aware that these were not your conventional tires and valve stems. Then I figured out that the mini pump looking device on the rail was for the tires which had this C02 gizmo that I had absolutely no clue how to use and yep! You guessed it I tried What thought was the right way and wound up getting blasted with C02. Needless to say my gorgeous Sun eve bike ride went out with the CO2. Ok lesson learned. I'll get one if those press valve thingys along with a replacement CO2 Cannister. I will not be stopped this time!

You are saying 90 to 115, but most of us watching this are noobs like myself. I don't know how tough a 90 psi pressure feels or looks like. Should have demonstrated that too. With a title like that this video is obviously for noobs like me. Someone link me to something that someone shows how tough a 100 psi or 110 psi tire looks like when u press it with ur finger. Please and thanks.

Just to echo what a lot of people have said on here - thank you so much! I've never owned a bike with a Presta valve on the tyres before until last week, so didn't have a clue, even though I've been cycling for 30 years. Really useful video - thanks again :)
