    my old Topeak DXG has given up the ghost after around 7 yrs reliable service and living in my Camelbak.

    Before I order another the same, anything better out there at under £35 or so ?

    Cheers

    The phaart ones from on one are cheap and cheerful

    I’d ask on here for a rockshox one. There must be a few serial fork swappers who’ve got spares.

    You might get one for postage or a couple of beer tokens.

    I’m in the same boat, new forks but no shock pump.
    If anyone has a RS pump up for grabs please let me know (if iainc doesn’t want first dibs)

    RS one or Beto (cheap and good)

    I’ve been using the Halfords own-brand one for the last few years.

    Needed one that day and they were the nearest shop. It hasn’t imploded/exploded yet!

    cheers, ordered this one from Merlin – good reviews as above and half the price of a Topeak replacement 🙂

    Fox basic one.

    Loco – Yeah, I had one of them but lost it – they seem of at £23 or so though ? If the Beto one last half as long as the old Topeak it will be fine !

    The Bikehut shock pump looks exactly the same as my Rockshox one. Its highly likely they are the same pump but branded differently.

    I use the Topeak one. It has been chucked around, the shaft is slightly bent and has even been through the washing machine. Still works perfectly.

    I have a spare RockShox one you can have for a tenner posted?

    very kind offer, thanks, but ordered the Beto one earlier on basis of recommendations and it’s winging it’s way to me from Merlin 🙂

    I’ve got the Beto one too, like the 2 stage valve thingy.

    +1 Beto. Mine works great. Great quality.

    Holy thread resurrection……
    Any Beto owners care to tell me how long the pump is? Quite liked the idea of the short Topeak one as could easy stick in a jersey pocket when I don’t have a bag with me. Can’t find dimensions for the Beto.

    It’s not super tiny small but it’s shorter than the rockshox. The gauge is quite sticky-outy though. I think I could put it in a jersey pocket but it’d not be ideal

    If I remember, I’ll measure it tonight for you
