will, of course, deal with Presta just fine. And just in case of a severe emergency that requires pumping quarters into a gas station compressor (perhaps you broke your mini pump fighting off a bear, and expended your CO2 cartridges attempting to do whipits) can be dealt with by throwing a tiny adapter into your saddle bag.
