This dinky and stylish fellow looks more akin to a CO2 canister than a mini-pump, but it unfolds to more than three times this length for pumping duties, and that’s without adding the extra flexi-tube.

That attractive metallic sheen comes in six colours, although it does look pretty vulnerable to scratching.

In use, we found the pump difficult to grip, and were reduced to gripping the flexi-tube to steady it.
