Has anyone used it to fill up bike tires

If the tires use the standard schrader valves, I use mine to fill my hand truck tires all the time. It is very fast and quite. I love thing!!

...But if you use it for your mountain bike it should be fine, since those tires require 30 to 50psi. Hybrids rarely go over 70psi.

This is not advisable since bicycle tires can require tire pressure well over 100psi. This pump's maximum operating pressure is 70psi.

it is not a pump. it is just a tire inflater with built in gauge that works with an external air compressor. you need to already have a compressor. with that said, it works great for bike tires, i used mine on Sunday to top off my tires on my beach cruiser.

Michael.This compressor was not designed for this job. The volume it produces is far too small to do a tire in a reasonable amount of time. ARB offers a tire inflation kit (part #171302) that can be fitted to any of the larger compressors such as the CKMA12. However, even that model is slow. Expect a 30 minute fill time for a tire. if you have any questions please let us know

I use it on mine, frequently. It is not a "super-duty" inflator and runs slow enough to take care of my bicycle tires without problems.

Yes I've tried it w an electric pump (kind u use to inflate bike wheels, inflatable pool) and it worked.

No - it is designed to use with inflatables for which it is awesome on all size inflatables and both inflating and deflating. Look for a high pressure foot pump for bike/car tires. Though manual they are compact and work well.

I've done it but it takes patience as the reserve tank is small so you have to wait for it to build more pressure. This compressor is designed for air nailers. If your buying it just to fill tires you will need a bigger tank.

I pulled the white plug and filled it up using a air compressor for bike tires.

no.....this is more of a slow steady air source which works great for tires. For what you want I'd look at something like this... http://www.amazon.com/The-Source-S-KIT10-Performace-Portable/dp/B003TFEE0K/ref=pd_sim_hi_5

No at all!, in my experience I use to pump up my tires at maximum recommended (85psi) in Michelin World Tour and I didnt have problems, Of course I use the Michelin tube "Michelin Airstop" and "Avenir Threaded Presta 48Mm Valve Tube"... The Tuffy Bicycle protection is great for ride for everywhere...

I have used it to pump the front fork on my bike up to 60lbs so I'm sure it would do that on a tire too. My only complaint with it would be that it takes between 2-300 pumps just to get my tires up to about 45 or 50lbs, but that should be expected from a small pump. So pretty much, muscle endurance is more important than big muscles with this pump.

If you are low on air in a tire or two, this is very useful for pumping tires. I've used mine several times to pump up a tire that was down maybe 10 to 20 PSI and it of course takes longer but not that much longer and it works great if it's the only pump you have. #useyourmouth

Yes, but it only worked for a few times and then the whole thing started to leak and became useless. I was using it for my road bike which needs to get around 100psi.

Yes they do 20psi full up, a bike pump will do, never had a issue with tires.

I use it for Footballs. It works well and is compact. You didn't state how high of a pressure your bike tire is. To me, that would be the determining factor. Otherwise, it's a compact and reliable pump.

Yes. However, I did it by mounting it to the Campbell Hausfeld MP6000 Tire Inflator with Gauge using a hose clamp. It works great filling my car or bicycle tires and the gauge is accurate.

Should be ok for bike tire. You need the inserts for inflating soccer balls, basketballs etc. Makes no sense why the hand pump does not come with inserts.
