Dero Releases New Public Bike Pumps to Withstand Weather and Heavy Use
Minneapolis, MN (PRWEB) September 17, 2013 -- Public bike pumps are becoming more popular – outside of bike shops and along bike paths – but most are not built to endure repeated use and the elements. Dero’s new Air Kits are built to last; designed by Dero specifically for the daily punishment that public bike pumps encounter.
Dero continues to offer quality bicycle transit solutions for public use with the expansion of its Air Kit line. Dero introduces two new, heavy-duty bike pumps: Air Kit 2 and Air Kit 3. Dero will continue to offer the original Air Kit – now Air Kit 1.
Air Kit 2 and Air Kit 3 feature a steel body and base, 3-foot hose to easily reach both wheels, gaskets rated from -30 to 100 degrees Fahrenheit, BMX grips, universal head that fits Presta and Schrader valves, and minimal maintenance. They have been put through a robotic test cycle with over 300,000 pumps without failure. New for all Air Kits is a magnetic pump head to make it a snap to attach to the steel body of the pump, keeping the hose off the ground so it lasts even longer.
Both can be powder coated, galvanized, thermoplastic coated, or made with stainless steel. Air Kit 2 may be added to a Dero Fixit (public bike repair stand) or available in surface mount; it does not have a psi gauge. Air Kit 3 includes an oil-filled psi gauge that is weatherproof and will not fog; surface mount only.
