A self-attaching pump includes a cylinder, a nozzle attached to the cylinder, a piston installed in the cylinder, a rod connected to the piston, a handle with a first end and an opposite second end, a fastener for pivotally connecting the second end of the handle to the rod and a stressing device arranged on the cylinder for stressing the self-attaching pump. There are defined a first value for the distance between the fastener and the first end of the handle, a second value for the length of the elastic element when the stressing does not stress the self-attaching pump and a third value for the distance between the piston and the nozzle when the first end of the handle reaches the stressing device while the stressing device does not stress the self-attaching pump. The first value is larger than the second value that is larger than the third value.

What is claimed is: 1. A self-attaching pump attachable to a bicycle without the use of any additional device, the self-attaching pump comprising: a cylinder; a nozzle attached to the cylinder; a piston movably installed in the cylinder; a rod connected to the piston; a handle comprising a first end and a second end opposite to the first end; a fastener pivotally connecting the second end of the handle to the rod, with the handle pivotal about the fastener between an operating position and an attaching position, with the handle being parallel to the rod in the attaching position, with the handle being at a non-parallel angle to the rod in the operating position, and a stressing device arranged on the cylinder abutting with the first end of the handle in the attaching position, with the stressing device stressing the self-attaching pump when the handle is in the attaching position; wherein there are defined a first value for the distance between the fastener and the first end of the handle, a second value for the length of the stressing device when the stressing device does not stress the self-attaching pump and a third value for the distance between the piston and the nozzle when the first end of the handle in the attaching position reaches the stressing device while the stressing device does not stress the self-attaching pump, wherein the first value is larger than the second value that is larger than the third value, with the first value being parallel to the rod in the attaching position and being at a non parallel angle to the rod in the operating position, with the first end of the handle not reaching the stressing device in the operating position; and wherein the first value is larger than the second value by a difference at least equal to one half of the width of the handle. 2. The self-attaching pump according to claim 1 wherein the difference is at least equal to the sum of one half of the width of the handle and the thickness of an ordinary rider's fingers. 3. The self-attaching pump according to claim 1 wherein the nozzle defines a groove for receiving a head tube of the bicycle. 4. The self-attaching pump according to claim 1 wherein the second end of the handle is recessed for receiving a saddle tube of the bicycle. 5. The self-attaching pump according to claim 1 wherein the handle defines a longitudinal groove receiving the rod in the attaching position. 6. The self-attaching pump according to claim 1 wherein the stressing device comprises an elastic element compressed between the cylinder and the first end of the handle in the attaching position. 7. The self-attaching pump according to claim 6 wherein the stressing device comprises a casing concealing the elastic element. 8. The self-attaching pump according to claim 7 wherein the casing comprises a tube and a collar engaged with the tube. 9. The self-attaching pump according to claim 8 wherein the collar is arranged around the cylinder. 10. The self-attaching pump according to claim 9 further comprising a ring attached to the cylinder before the collar is arranged around the cylinder so that the ring can be abutted against the collar. 11. A pump comprising, in combination: a cylinder portion having a nozzle end and an opposite end, wherein the cylinder portion comprises a cylinder including the nozzle end and a stressing device arranged on the cylinder and including the opposite end; a nozzle attached to the nozzle end of the cylinder portion; a piston slideably installed in the cylinder portion; a rod connected to the piston; a handle comprising a first end and a second end opposite to the first end; a fastener pivotally connecting the second end of the handle to the rod, with the handle pivotal about the fastener between an operating position and an attaching position, with the handle being parallel to the rod in the attaching position, with the handle being at a non-parallel angle to the rod in the operating position, wherein there are defined a handle value for the distance between the fastener and the first end of the handle and a piston value for the distance of the piston from the nozzle end of the cylinder portion when the first end of the handle in the attaching position abuts with the opposite end of the cylinder portion while the stressing device does not stress the self-attaching pump, with the piston value being less than the handle value. 12. The self-attaching pump according to claim 11 wherein the handle defines a longitudinal groove receiving the rod in the attaching position. 13. The self-attaching pump according to claim 11 wherein the stressing device comprises an elastic element compressed between the cylinder and the first end of the handle in the attaching position. 14. The self-attaching pump according to claim 13 wherein the stressing device comprises a casing concealing the elastic element. 15. The self-attaching pump according to claim 14 wherein the casing comprises a tube and a collar engaged with the tube. 16. The self-attaching pump according to claim 15 wherein the collar is arranged around the cylinder. 17. The self-attaching pump according to claim 1 wherein the handle terminates in the second end, with the handle and the rod defining an L-shape when the handle is in an operating position.
