Real world opinions on mini pumps for road bikes needed

[Nighthawk]

Some great replies, I'm going to have to find a shop with some of these in stock now, seems to be a closely fought race between the topeak and the leyzne pumps.

I don't think I'll be going far wrong with either brand though

I carry one but in the past 12 months have used the CO2 inflators. Much better and faster.

Sorry, just read the OP properly.

I have a top-peak micro job that seems to be OK up to about 80psi.

A wee bump,

My preferred LBS had a few Leyzne pumps in stock but we're waiting for a delivery of the topeak pumps ( only had big pumps) so I got a Leyzne road drive HP. its small enough to fit in the under seat pack I bought at the same time too and has so far been a lucky talisman

Did my first 100 mile+ ride yesterday which included several roads where my mtb would have been better suited and umpteen lanes which had had the hawthorn hedges recently cut back and nobody in the group had a flat !!

Thanks for all the comments and advice.

I've known the inflators break - the screw part came off one time, and I was glad someone had brought a normal pump!

That's pretty much what happened, it leaked the co2 out of the inflators regulator knob all over my hand!

Pump and replacement co2 stuff safely tucked away in a seat pack now
