First-hand
What people say
The Cloud Cap pump is the perfect size for my gravel bike frame and the CO2 head is a great backup.
I used the Fatty Object on my winter rig and it handled the large tires without any issues.
The alloy construction of the Shiny Object feels very solid and it threads onto the valve perfectly.

Common questions
Portland Design Works Questions
Do these pumps work with both Presta and Schrader valves?
These models are primarily designed for Presta valves, which are standard on most gravel and mountain bikes. The alloy heads ensure a tight seal during high-pressure CO2 release.
What is a hybrid pump and CO2 inflator?
A hybrid tool like the Ninja or Cloud Cap allows you to use a CO2 cartridge for speed or the hand pump for manual inflation. This provides a backup if you run out of cartridges.
Are CO2 cartridges included with the inflators?
The inflators and pumps are sold as the hardware units only. You will need to provide your own threaded CO2 cartridges for the inflation feature to work.
Is there a specific model for fat bikes?
Yes, the Fatty Object is specifically designed for the high-volume requirements of fat bike tires. It allows for efficient air transfer into larger tire casings.
