About Planet Bike
In November 1996, Planet Bike was founded in Madison, WI. In many ways, Planet Bike began as a social experiment that dedicated itself to doing business in a different way. Instead of being just another company that develops and sells products with profit as its end goal, Planet Bike wanted to help bring about positive change for people, their communities, and the environment.

Despite being a simple machine, the people at Planet Bike have always believed that the bicycle has great potential to help improve the world and the lives of the people in it. From the start, they have embraced an alternative corporate purpose which seeks to help get more people on bicycles by making communities friendlier places for the self-propelled. By donating 25% of company profits to causes that promote and facilitate bicycle usage, Planet Bike hopes to make an impact.

Social experiments aside, Planet Bike was born from the heart of a cyclist with a goal of making innovative, high-quality, and practical bicycle accessories. Simply put, the company strives to design and develop the best bicycle products in the world. In the company's short 10-year history, it has made important product innovations within the bicycle industry. Advancements include the four-line computer which is now a standard in the industry and the world's first self-contained HID light. Not bad for a company that 10 years ago started as a one-man operation. Today, while still a small company, Planet Bike continues to evolve and improve its product line with the goal of always striving to build accessories that make it easier for people to ride their bikes. Since 1996, Planet Bike's financial support of the grassroots bicycle movement has totaled $500,000. By 2010, they have made a goal to donate $1 million to organizations that are dedicated to making America a friendlier place for cyclists.

4 out of 5 stars Excellent pump. Poor quality handle   September 8, 2010
kinezos
Purchased this pump for my Mountain and Road bikes after a lot of resarch and reading of other reviews. Essentially, this is a great pump which enables high pressures to be obtained very quickly. My only gripe is that the "love jandle" feels poorly constructed - it flexes slightly and is made of quite poor quality plastic, hence minus 1 star. Only time will tell whether this product lasts.

But so long as it's working, another excellent Planet Bike Product



5 out of 5 stars finally a decent pump   September 7, 2010
Zhuang R. Tan (New York, NY USA)
After struggling for months with a Giant mini pump, I finally gave in and invested in this baby.. Just got it today and it works like a charm and the pressure dial makes me feel confident about the level of pressure.


5 out of 5 stars Awesome Mix of Value and Functionality   September 3, 2010
Steven Gargolinski (Boston)
I did a bunch of research before purchasing my first floor pump, and the Planet Bike 1002-3 ALX is the one that I chose to buy, and I'm definitely psyched that I did.

Right off the bat you can tell that this is a quality product - it's sturdy, well-designed, and easy to use. I was personally very surprised at how much air is moved with each pump - it only took a few pumps to bring my bike tires up to around 80 psi. The gauge on this pump is also very useful - it's color-coded by bike type and makes it very easy to fill your tires with the correct amount of air. Now that I keep my tires inflated properly, it's amazing how much of a difference it makes with my daily bike rides.

Using the pump has really been a pleasure. It's great bang for the buck, and I would recommend it to anyone!



4 out of 5 stars More than I wanted to spend but it works well   August 31, 2010
Ragman (New York)
I bought this pump when my decade old Joe Blow died suddenly, so I paid up a little. It inflates tires to high PSI, e.g., 120, with fewer strokes than my old pump. It does take a bit of "feel" to get it clamped properly on presta valves. No problem with schraeder valves. And it releases more easily than my old Joe Blow,though I do have to jiggle it a bit. This pump is lighter than my old pump, which makes it feel less solid, but I think that's a perception, not a substantive issue.


4 out of 5 stars Nice bike pump...but expensive   August 29, 2010
JEL (Princeton, NJ United States)
I had a bike pump that worked for years. It was difficult attach the pump to the tire, but it worked well enough. When it broke, I decided to spend the extra money for a good pump. This pump is expensive, but it's works well. It takes a little effort to connect the pump to the tire, but when you start pumping, the tire fills quickly . Just as important, when you disconnect it from the tire, you don't lose half the air in the tire. Simply put, if you are willing to spend the money, this one is worth it.
