[#1682238]

I'm looking for a very small pump to strap to my seatpost for races or road rides the only stipulation is it needs to be less than 160mm long, I was looking at this [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=8177 ]Here[/url] But wondered if there was anything else out there.

Or maybe [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=37214 ]this[/url]? I'm not sure of the exact length but I'd guess it's no more than 160mm, and works like a charm.

That looks good but I was kind of hoping there might be a cheaper alternative to the Crank Brothers one, I guess I'm probably asking too much.

The Leyzene is pretty small isn't it. Personally I'd avoid Blackburn after some bad experience.

If you're racing proper-like, I'd have thought a CO2 pump would be better as they'll be way faster than a hand-pump, especially if it's a small one

Leyzene Alloy Drive here. Lots of postive reviews and it looks the business.

I did think the same thing but as a co2 cartrage and adapter arn't too far off the price of a pump I thought it might make a bit more sense to get a pump instead, I'd imagine that it wouldn't greatly add to the time it took to fix the puncture by the time I had put a new tube in anyway.

Has anyone tried the Topeak Peakini if so is it any good as it's supposed to be only 11cm according to google...
