Flatted today and realized my mini pump is not up to snuff, as I need to hit min 100 psi for the tire to reseat properly.
Had the Topeak Morph Mini G in the past, apart from the near useless choppy gauge it worked well at 178g, but I can't find it for sale here.
The LEZYNE Micro Floor Drive HP ABS is only 204g and its gauge seems better. Not sure about the screw-on connector, did they fix it unscrewing presta valves?
Any other options? I don't need a mini floor pump design as long as I can hit the PSI i need fairly easily, it will only be used for the occasional emergency. Low weight is a plus as I'll carry it in a backpack for most part, and want one that has a tube extension to avoid damaging valves.
Uniche (a taiwanese company) has a contender at 138g that can allegedly reach 140 psi
Topeak Mini Morph G is pretty widely available. Google finds at least 3 places selling them. I've got one, it works okay. Haven't tried it for road bike pressures.
I think the Lezyne is better - I've never had problems with them unscrewing valve cores (but I do valve cores up fairly tightly), I know others have though. I think it's pretty inherent to the design that it's going to unwind the valve core if they're not done up tight, though.
I have a uniche for my mtb and I'm on my 2nd Morph for my road bike. I'm tubeless on both so rarely use them. When I have they've both been fine.
I'm living in Krakow at the moment, so availability is different. I ordered the Uniche from ebay.com, shipped from Taiwan, see what happens 🙂
