Wore out three sets of tires already!
I am curious if anyone might have some knowledge regarding a "Mistral" tire pump. Found in my bag 'o pumps, it is a pump that mounts to a frame, but it is used as a floor pump (folding foot stand and removeable "T" handle). Chromed steel body with screw-in extension hose (schrader valve). I think I bought it when visiting southern France, but it was many years ago.
I do not know the country of manufacture, or the years it was made. I am looking at mounting it on a bike from the '30s to pre-war '40s, and I would like to mate it to either an Italian (Gerbi) or French (Automoto) frame with some degree of chronological accuracy. I think it might be Spanish made, but basing that only on loose interpretation of writing on the unit. Excellent pump, high pressure (>90 psi) capable.
Photos to follow shortly.
