The Geometric Hand Pump MP7 in sleek black is a compact yet effective manual tyre pump built for cyclists who demand reliability on the road or trail. Standing as a dependable backup to CO₂ systems or floor pumps, this pump is perfect for topping up pressure mid-ride or in tight spots. With its lightweight design and durable materials, the MP7 fits neatly in frame bags, jersey pockets, or under water bottle cages for easy access during Malaysian cycling conditions.

Key Features & Benefits
-
Dual-valve compatibility means no need to change pump heads when switching between Presta and Schrader valves.
-
Aluminium construction keeps strength high and weight low.
-
Compact footprint ensures portability without sacrificing performance.
-
Rubberized grip or foot pad (if present) offers stable handling while pumping under pressure.
-
Ideal as a primary pump on light builds, or a backup pump on full setups.
Usage Instructions
Setup & Connection
-
Identify the tyre valve type (Presta or Schrader).
-
Position the pump head over the valve and press or twist to engage the seal; if there is a lever lock, flip to “locked” position to secure.
-
Begin pumping by extending and retracting the barrel in steady strokes.
-
Monitor the tyre pressure via a gauge (if your pump has one) or by feel; stop when desired inflation is reached.
-
Unlock and remove the pump head carefully, then cap or close the valve as needed.
Step-by-Step Use
-
Use slow, full strokes initially to move air quickly.
-
As pressure builds, reduce stroke length and pump more evenly.
-
Avoid pumping too rapidly at high pressure to reduce fatigue and risk of seal failure.
-
After inflation, make sure the pump head is clean before storing.
Maintenance & Care
-
Wipe the pump barrel, head and seals clean with a damp cloth after use, especially in dusty or muddy rides.
-
Occasionally apply light silicone or PTFE grease to seals to maintain airtight performance.
-
Check for cracks or damage to barrel, head, or locking lever.
-
Store in a dry, shaded place to avoid corrosion of metal parts.
Precautions & Safety Notes
-
Do not exceed the maximum pressure recommendation of your tyre (printed on the tyre sidewall). Overinflation may cause blowouts or tube rupture.
-
Avoid sudden high-force pumping which may damage the pump head seal or tyre valve.
-
Ensure the pump head is securely locked before applying force — if it slips, it may damage the valve stem.
-
Always mount or store the pump securely on your bike or pack to prevent loss or damage during rides.
-
If the pump barrel becomes bent or the head cracked, discontinue use until repaired or replaced.
-
Never use the pump for objects other than bicycle tyres (e.g. balls, inflatable gear) unless explicitly indicated as safe by manufacturer.
-
Keep away from children; small parts may pose choking hazard if detached.
