As above really - I would like a good quality one so don't mind spending a bit of cash (up to £40ish).

Must be capable of seating my tubeless ready tyres (with inner tube rim strip) and getting the road bike tyres up to 115psi.

Automatically adjust to shrader or presta, is well built and reliable. And if anything does go wrong, you can buy spares.

Park Tools are also great but a little less value for money!

topeak joe blow sport 2 here, which replaced a park one (cheapish - 30 quid) which was rubbish - it lasted about 6 months. my previous specialized lasted over 10 years but then needed a head re-build and I couldn't get the spares.

Dunno if its just mine??

But I lent Danny (Junkyard) mine the other week at the carpark before the ride, and he blew his tyre off the rim...

Something wrong with the gauge?!

I have the cheap ass pump from tesco's.

according to the guage ( assuming its correct ) it easily goes up to 120psi, has the 2 valve holes on the end, clamps really easily.

really cant complain about it. It just does the job ... for £14

I've got the Tesco's one here too! Had it for about a year. Does the job, never rely on the pressure gauge, prefer to do the kerb test. If the rim bottoms out when pushed against the kerb then its too soft!

Joe Blow sprint here - just cos I am original.

Aboout 20 pumps to 110psi (700 x 32c) - not as good as I had been led to believe by reading online reviews, still a well made pump though.

I have been using a Joe Blow Pro for around 3-4 years but it started leaking air where the hose joined the pump body after trying to pump up some road bike tyres, i tried repairing it but with no success. I have now bought a Specialized Pro pump which i prefer to the Topeak. The hose keeper is less fussy and the pump foot is more stable, seems to pump a little quicker and the head pulls of the valve easier.

I would go with this [url= http://www.bikeradar.com/gear/category/tools/cycling-tools/product/airtool-pro-33667 ]ONE[/url]
