Abstract
This invention relates to a method and apparatus for securing a cycle pump. The apparatus consists of a C-shaped holding means adjustably adopted so as to be tightly fitted around the pump body. Lips protrude from the C-shaped holding means and are adaptably fitted to receive a locking means. A cover means is fittingly adapted to permit entry of the lips through the cover means, whereupon the shoulder of the cover is forced against the pump head. This causes the pump body and head to become wedged into the cycle frame pegs. Placing a lock through the lips, which contains holes, prevents the pump from becoming unwedged, thus securing the pump.
