Will this mini bike pump work as a ball pump as well? I have a lot of sports balls and this tool could help.

We haven't tried it yet, but my husband states it would be useful for our daughters soccer ball. I'm assuming so

Yes, I believe so. I even use it to inflate my kids sport balls by adding a small needle adapter to it. Very useful!

The ball simply has a little tubular opening in the vinyl into which a smooth (or ridged) conical nozzle will fit snugly. A bicycle pump has a screw nozzle which will not fit the ball. You may be able to find an adapter to fit the bicycle pump but I have never seen one. A pump for an air bed might work though.

I suppose you could. I use it only for inflating soccer and basketballs. We have a separate bike tire pump.

If you use a needle valve in the basketball, one side of this will fit on the valve, like a car tire or bike tire valve. Other sides good for inflatble mattress or pool floats.

You can use the normal bicycle pump that you would use for any normal bike or for inflating balls, etc. The only other type of pump that I've seen are the pumps for racing bikes which are made for skinny stems - you don't need one of those.

I'm not sure. The air compressor is to small for anything I wanted to use it for. It would not even blow up my bike tires.It may be good for a soccer ball or something similar.

Yes, cars and motorcycles, using the schrader side; BUT, it'll be like using a spatula to shovel snow. This Sport II model is great for standard or many special bikes, such as electrics. If you need an especially heavy duty BICYCLE pump, perhaps for fat or tubeless tires, you'll want to search for and consider a Stage 2 or Stage 3 pump such as the Topeak Transformer XX or Joe Blow Ace: each retails for $150. The latter are still not for cars.

I believe so! The pump comes with two small attachments, and should work for standard exercise balls. However, I have not used it for that myself.

I don't know. I gave it as a gift to my nephew. He loves it. Have you tried just a regular bicycle tire pump?

It would work if you have the right tip for the ball, but it would take forever. It does not pump much air per stroke.

If it has a valve (like those on automobile tires) you can use it very nicely. If it has only a small spot, like a basketball, you'll need a needle valve first, and then you can use this pump. The pump itself works extremely well.

I only used it on the thin balloons. I'm sure it will also work on the other sizes. However, it was really hard to get it to even blow up the thin balloons without exerting a lot of effort and taking a long time. I wouldn't recommend this as the best method. I'm sure there are way better pumps out there.

If the ball is inflatable via a needle (almost any sports ball would qualify), or by a standard valve (like a bike or car tire), then yes this pump will work. It will not work on something like an air bed/mattress without an adapter of some kind.

It should. My g nephew's family got if for pumping up bicycle tires and basketballs. Pumping up car tires was an added bonus.

I dont think so- I used our bike pump- if I recall, it had an adapter to put on the bike pump. It was definitely a little awkward to pump up without a helper but I think I just wedged it between my feet or something!

Pretty sure any exercise ball pump will work with this being that the inner ball is an exercise ball.
