I came downstairs this morning and my wife asked me how to use the bike pump. I started laughing and then told her that this bike pump was sent from a dank, isolated place to torture us all.
The Schwinn AirDriver 1100 tries to be a pump for all seasons-it’s got a skinny attachment for balls, a presta attachment for racing tires and a ‘normal’ setting for traditional bikes. The Mojo house mainly uses it for racing bikes and athletic balls. Unfortunately for us those are the two settings that don’t work.
They’ve never worked. At first I thought it was me, so I googled “Schwinn AirDriver 1100” and found a litany of product reviews, most of them savaging this bike pump. If they weren’t dumping on this pump (for good reason) they were saying that it ‘took a while’, but once they got it going it was great. A product as seemingly simple as a bike pump shouldn’t ‘take a while’ to work, I want to inflate something and I want to do it now.
The average rating for this bike pump online is 1 star out of 5. I’m guessing that the 1 star rating was for junk metal value and not its ability to pump.
If I had a choice between watching Battlefield Earth and trying to use the Schwinn AirDriver 1100 I would watch Battlefield Earth.
Have a root canal or use the Schwinn AirDriver 1100? With a root canal they would give you novacane.
Have Justin Beiber stuck on repeat with the volume at 8, or use the Schwinn AirDriver 1100? Call me a Beleiber.
Sit next to a co worker that stinks and talks on the phone loudly like Fran Drescher or use the pump? I’d have earphones and petiole oil on my desk.
Use the Schwinn AirDriver 1100 or lose all my twitter followers? Regrettably, the twitter followers would go to a goose egg.
I would use this bike pump as a door stop but I don’t want my door to get offeneded.
The Schwinn AirDriver 1100 doesn’t come close to forcing air, but it does suck.
You get the point. This bike pump is sent here to frustrate and vex anybody who tries to use it. Sadly, you’ll find this bike pump at all major retailers, Wal Mart, Target, etal. Oy….spend the extra money and go to a bike store where you’ll get a quality bike pump.
