Under the umbrella of the French sporting goods giant Decathlon, you will find a large number of solution-oriented products for a wide variety of application segments. A large part of this is accounted for by the cycling sector, which is served by own brands such as B'Twin or Triban. With the large range of accessories, it is of course not surprising that Decathlon also offers a wide variety of bicycle pumps - one of these is the floor pump 900, which we took a closer look at.
Structure and key data of the Decathlon floor pump 900
The floor pump 900 has an aluminum body and double base, while the handle is made of polyamide. The double pump head enables the inflation of tires with Schrader, Dunlop and Presta valves. Thanks to the pump capacity of up to 10 bar or 145 PSI, the pump is also suitable for racing bike tires. The integrated pressure gauge with a diameter of around 47 millimeters is located at the base of the pump and indicates the current air pressure in both bar and PSI. The hose has a length of 81 cm, including the pump head, the radius of action adds up to about 89 cm. The floor pump 900 is available at a price of 28,99 euros.
function and feel
The double metal base offers a large surface area and enables wobble-free inflation. The solid pump body also contributes to this, which allows efficient operation even at high pressure. The handle made of polyamide, which offers sufficient grip even with sweaty hands, is also convincing. The double pump head is a bit fiddly when it is fixed on the valve, but then closes very tightly. The integrated pressure gauge is not quite as convincing. The blue lettering on the black dial is difficult to read, especially in unfavorable lighting conditions.
Conclusion Decathlon floor pump 900
For less than 30 euros, the buyer gets a floor pump that is solidly made and offers sufficient power with a pumping capacity of up to 10 bar. However, the floor pump 900 from Decathlon has to put up with criticism when it comes to the readability of the integrated pressure gauge.
