ABSTRACT:
A tight fitting, tubular cover designed to protect portable, (attached to bicycle), bicycle tire pumps. The cover itself is constructed of a stretchy material (10) to facilitate a tight fit around the tire pump. A zipper (20) is incorporated into the body (30) of the pump cover to ease insertion and removal of the pump into and out of the pump cover. When zipped shut, the pump cover forms a tight fitting barrier that protects the valve mechanism and other vital components of the bicycle pump from foreign matter. A clean pump is essential because during tire inflation a dirty pump nozzle can transmit debris to the valve core of the tires innertube, causing leakage.
