it does not use the standard air pump at per say a gas station, where can I find a pump to fill the tires on this bike?

It's called a presta valve. I bought a hand pump from walmart that's interchangeable between the two types. It was like 20 bucks. I bet Amazon sells them.

Or you can take it to a good bike shop that will drill out the hole in the rim to accept schrader valve tubes. Prestas are very finicky, delicate and serve no better purpose than a traditional schrader on a mountain bike. People just think they are exotic because they are normally found on more high-end road bikes.

You can get adaptor to go on valve stem so you can fill air anywhere. Adaptor at any bike shop one dollar.

You can buy the pump in amazon or in Walmart or Target. i would recommen you buy the ones that have the two diferent sizes of tire valves(gas station and the small one)

I think you would have trouble putting a hand pump in this thing. Look at Planet Bike's Red Zeppelin CO2 inflator for $15.99 on Amazon. These are compact and work great.

It's a pretty standard valve. That being said, your regular bicycle pump or air compressor won't work without an adapter. But any standard hand or electric pump that is for pumping air mattresses, etc will work. I used a hand pump that came with an air mattress to pump up my towable. They sell for 10 bucks or less

It didn't come with a pump. I used a bike pump. If I remember right, it came with an attachment for the bike pump.

My husband said you need a bike pump with a "schraeder valve" not a "presta valve". We got an awesome bike pump for $20 at Walmart. It has both. I have to air my tires up about one a week. The more air the smoother the ride.

I use a Topeak Mountain Morph (high volume) for my Fatbike. It takes me about 120 pumps to fill a 4"X26 bicycle tire to 7 PSI. I'm sure the Mountain Morph would work for your needs if you have the patience.

Any bike pump that fits a Schrader valve (the thicker valve size that is also found on all regular car tires) will do the job.

The pump is not included. You have to use your own bike pump. It is really a fun fun toy for kids and adults. It is worth it.

Yes. You need to add air. I did it with a bike pump that had a basketball air fill needle on it. Hope that helps :)

Yes! I was confused about this too because of the packaging but yes you can use a regular old hand bike pump. It comes with the attachment that you need.

we used an air compressor. if you don't have one, just go to a gas station and use theirs.

You need to find the correct air connection to fit your air compressor line, there are several different types. No you can not use a bicycle pump, the make a manual version of this product if you do not have an air compressor. I really like mine.

You can use the normal bicycle pump that you would use for any normal bike or for inflating balls, etc. The only other type of pump that I've seen are the pumps for racing bikes which are made for skinny stems - you don't need one of those.

I use an electric pump. You might be able to use a bicycle pump to inflate with the right attachment on the pump. A screw on attachment that is cone shaped might work.

I used my air compressor. Too bad they didn't come with tires that never go flat. I might switch mine with those. Harbor Freight if you have them near you has tires that never go flat and you don't have to inflate.

No, there is not a nozzle for bike tires, but there is one for just about any air mattress.

Has no air tires....no need for it with this bike. Highly recommend this trainer bike.
