I love Blackburn kit with its lifetime warranty but their track pumps suck. I replaced mine with a Joe blow.

Joe blow here 10 years old and still going strong. Previous blackburn lasted about 2 years.

I have a basic Joe blow and a blingy lezyne. The Joe blow is better in almost every way, except volume per stroke,

You are all wrong on so many levels. 🙄

Silca Superpista. The last track pump you will ever buy.

Another vote for a BJ. You won't regret it.

Never really tried many, so basing it on what I own - found the Airwave Blast to be well made and, ermm...it pumps tyres up. £35 @ CRC reduced from £45

I bought one of these a year ago. I thought 'if it breaks, I'll take it back and swap it for some bottles of black sheep'. It's still going strong and it recently helped me go tubeless very easily. Highly recommended. Why not buy 2 and have a spare.?!

They are on sale this Monday.

My ten quid plastic Halfords jobbie sadly died last weekend, so I've splashed out on a posh Lifeline Essential Track pump, eighteen quid (with a discount if you're BC member) plus free Haribo. Feels somewhat better than the Halfords jobbie, i can tell you.

Unless you're a roadie go for a high volume "low" pressure like a Lezyne Dirt pump. Better for mtb tyres.

my Joe blow 2 was crap. didn't last long at all and just fell apart, as did a cheap park one.

if you have a decathlon near to you, their most expensive own brand one is brilliant and very robust.

I got one of those green Air Waves ones from CRC on sale, does the job and easy to find in a cluttered jumbled garage as it's so bright 😀 It does presta and schrader with the one head as well.
