Crankbrothers Adds a Plug Tool to its KLIC HV Hand Pump: First Look
Crankbrothers builds bike-integrated tools designed to reduce what riders carry. The KLIC HV Plug Tool Pump adds a plug tool to the existing KLIC HV mini pump lineup. The lineup already offers high-volume and high-pressure versions, with optional pressure gauges or CO2 inflators depending on the unit. Two new KLIC HV Plug Tool Pumps are planned, with or without a pressure gauge. The pump keeps the familiar design, including a flexible hose with a magnetic head and twisting collar, compatible with Presta and Schrader valves. It also includes a fork, plugs, anchors, and a valve core tool, with a folding and locking handle for easier inflation.
"Adding to that ecosystem is the new KLIC HV Plug Tool Pump. If you're familiar with Crankbrothers' hand pumps, you'll know the KLIC isn't new. Currently, the brand has two options of KLIC pumps - HV or HP - "High Volume" or "High Pressure." HP pumps land on the road/gravel side of cycling, where HV pumps are for mountain bikes."
"With the HV or HP choice, you also have the option of a pressure gauge or a CO2 inflator. Now, Crankbrothers is adding a third option, which is the plug tool, to its HV pumps. However, it does get a bit tricky here, as not every option is available in one unit, namely, the CO2 inflator. There will be two new KLIC HV Plug Tool Pumps, and the choice is with or without a pressure gauge."
"The pump will remain essentially the same as the other KLIC pumps in their lineup. It features a flexible hose with a magnetic head and a twisting collar, all stored inside the pump's body. This hose is compatible with both Presta and Schrader valves. Also incorporated into the pump are a fork, plugs, anchors, and a valve core tool."
"The handle of the pump folds and locks to make inflation a bit easier (Crankbros claims 110psi; I imagine that might have your arms burning), and the pump itself"
