im looking to buy a decent pump that will fit in small backpack. anyone know what the most powerful one out there is i can get, i have tubeless tyres so am guessing it will need to be powerful.whats the best, i have a track pump at home but need something while out and about. also i need some new sealent whats the best, wheels are crossmax xl and tyres are panaracer trailblasters, cheers.
Topeak MTB morph is my pump of choice nowadays, had a Blackburn (very good) and zefal (rubbish) units before that, wouldn't swap the morph for any now. Lezyne have a following on here too, going on previous threads.
PS: If you tubeless tyre goes down whilst out, shirely (well I plan to) you just stuff a tube in and worry about the issue when your home.. so a 'powerful' pump isn't really required IMHO.
...and I use Stans fluid in my tubeless tyres, no idea if it the best, but it's worked fine for me so have no reason to change.
MTB Morph here, too. The only mini pump that can cope with snow bike tyres 🙂
Lezyne road mini-pumps are great, but the screw-on hose has a nasty habit of taking the valve core out of tubeless MTB tyres.
Mountain Morph +1 I got one a couple of months back and its great as a mini-trackpump, but don't think I'd class it as a mini pump.
I'm after something smaller that I can clip on the frame for days when i'm not taking a backpack.
I'm tubeless and with Zippy in a way... If it deflates then a mini pump will sort it... I have done this many times after using a rubber pluncture plug. If the tyre has come off the rim I doubt that any mini pump will reseat it, so a tube is the way forward, but a mini pump will be fine for pumping that up...
+1 Mountain Morph...
I have a blackburn airstick sl carbon which I like very much. Tiny but pushes out plenty of air. Clever design pumps both in and out strokes.
I am still using one of these that I bought in 1996:

Not sure what you mean by 'powerful' but I can pump up UST tyres with it.
I doubt it will work for silly tubeless conversions though.
