Jinta Foot Pedal Tyre Inflator with Multi-Valve Head — a foot-operated pump with a built-in PSI and bar gauge and a multi-valve head, so one unit covers car tyres, bicycle tyres, motorcycle tyres and sports balls. Being foot-operated rather than handheld means both hands stay free to hold the connector onto the valve stem.
Why it is worth fitting
A foot pump sounds like the primitive option next to a 12 V compressor, and for speed it is. But it has one advantage that matters a great deal: there is nothing to plug in, nothing to charge, and nothing that can be flat when you need it. On a bicycle with Presta valves, or on a trailer in a field, or on a car whose accessory socket is already occupied, the foot pump is the tool that always works. The design detail that counts is that both hands are free — with a handheld pump you are often fighting to keep the connector seated on the valve while also working the handle, which is where the air leaks out. And the multi-valve head means a single unit covers the car, the bikes and the football, so it earns its place in the boot rather than being a single-purpose tool.
Key features
- 160 PSI capacity with a built-in PSI and bar pressure gauge
- Multi-valve adaptor covers car, motorcycle, bicycle and ball valves
- Foot pedal operation leaves both hands free to seat the connector properly
- Steel, plastic and aluminium alloy construction built for long service
- No power supply, no battery and nothing to recharge — always ready
- Weighs 820 g, light enough to stay permanently in the boot
- Works for bicycles, scooters, motorcycles, cars and sports equipment
- Gauge reads in PSI and bar, so it suits both conventions

Will it fit?
Universal — the multi-valve head suits Schrader valves on cars, Presta and Woods valves on bicycles, and comes with adaptors for balls and other inflatables. No vehicle-specific parts are involved. On very low-profile or wide tyres, a foot pump will take longer than a powered compressor, so it is best suited to topping up rather than inflating from completely flat.
Fitting and first use
Screw or clamp the correct valve adaptor onto the stem; on a Presta valve, undo the small locking nut first. Fold out the foot pedal and stand on it, keeping the other foot on the base so the pump does not slide. Work the pedal in full strokes rather than rapid short ones — full travel moves more air. Watch the gauge as the pressure comes up, and stop slightly short, then check with a separate gauge once the tyre is cold. Unscrew the connector quickly to minimise air loss, and refit the valve cap.
Care and maintenance
Keep the gauge glass clean so you can actually read it, and treat the gauge as a guide rather than a calibrated instrument — for accurate figures, confirm with a separate pressure gauge. Store the unit with the hose loosely coiled, not folded sharply at the connector. Check the rubber seals inside the valve adaptors occasionally and replace them if they leak, which is the usual cause of a pump that stops holding pressure. Keep it out of standing water in the boot.
Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to inflate a car tyre?
Topping up a few PSI takes well under a minute of steady pedalling. Inflating a completely flat tyre by foot takes considerably longer and is best done with a powered compressor.
Will it work on Presta bicycle valves?
Yes. The multi-valve head and adaptors cover Presta as well as Schrader, so it handles both the car and the bike.
Is the built-in gauge accurate?
It is a reliable guide for everyday inflation, and the PSI and bar scales are easy to read. For critical accuracy, verify with a separate gauge once the tyres are cold.
Does it need any power at all?
No. It is entirely mechanical, which is why it always works. There is no battery to go flat and nothing to plug in.
