Does anyone have any recommendations for tiny bike pumps to keep on my commuter? Durability is preferred, but I don't want to break the bank if it gets stolen.

You don't sound shitty to your own eyes, but I'd wager others take it different. It reads as dismissive and combative.

People do it because no outcome is a lock; you can prepare all you want but you may get a flat.

And see? You dismissed me out of hand. Be kind. You don't even know what kind of riding I'm doing, how long, where, or with what kind of child seat. I ride a lot in places that one could be commuting, to many different businesses/parks. The technical difference in my purpose makes little difference in how my bike physically interacts with roads/sidewalks.

Be cool man, if bikers in a bike forum can't at least be chill we have NO chance against the cars.
