also used a mini pump to inflate tires on a bike with low pressure - owner forgot to inflate before the ride - again no issue

for emergency situations I find the mini pump to be acceptable

BITD as a roadie riding 100 psi - preferred CO2 with adjustable inflator - but now with wider tires and lower pressure the mini pump is acceptable
