I have always thought about having a mac or philbert pump and i was able to try both at the weekend.
But i found they were both awkward to but the balloon on,stretch the nozzle of the balloon to put it over.On my electric you just push it on,it's a tapered nozzle.
Is it something you get use to or would it easier if it was tapered?
Thanks Wizz

They were selling a tapered nozzle at one of the conventions I was at, trouble is I cant remember which one. If you started to use either pump then within 5 mins you would be comfortable with the nozzle that is on either pump. Also if you inflated 350/646 with a tapered nozzle it would take longer and more strokes to inflate. So I reckon just go
with the nozzle supplied, I don't think it would be too difficult to attach a tapered nozzle over the original if you really could not get used to the larger one.
