Took the bike out today for the first time in months, by christ it were cold.

Anyway I managed to snap my frickin pump in half. It was a crank brothers power pump alloy thing.

I'd recommend the topeak pocket rocket but I've only got it attached to my bike and haven't had the need to use it yet (touch wood) so I can't hehe

I've used one of these for 3 years now, no problems, and easy enough to pump up a mtb tube from flat to 40psi.

Never tried it with my road bike (not had a puncture yet!) - I guess that the wide barrel means it would struggle to reach 100psi.

I've heard nothing but good reviews about Lezyne too.

This is a good 'un. Gets up to 100+psi without too much bother.

Ive got the current spesh pump.
- I had one the old dual-action ones at it constantly failed (stuck valves) so you just couldnt rely on it. But this one has been totaly faultless, and infact at the moment, im using it as my only pump and its be great. (bit of a short throw for doing my 2.35 regualarly tho)

I also now carry it in my camal, rather than on the bike, which may also be helping reliabilty as its not always caked in mud.

This one.
