Just lost my excellent Blackburn Mammoth Mountain pump out on a ride. Anyone recommend anything different? Otherwise it's same again for me. Thanks
Lots of people always recommend those Lezyne ones. Never had a problem with my Blackburn Mammoth though.
Lezyne Lezyne Lezyne. Small, shiny and it works.
Topeak Mountain Morph. Once you've used one, you'll never bother with anthing else.
what tyres?
can't answer without a full rundown
mountain morph
spesh ground control 1.7 front, conti explorer 1.5 rear.
A mate of mine has one that's like a mini-track pump - seems to work pretty well. Can't remember which one it is.
PP and MrMW are right, of course, with that topeak one (I lost mine ๐ฅ ) but blackburn are great too - and their lifetime warranty really works. I had a mammoth mountain that broke after about 5yrs & got a new replacement
Nah, got a Lezyne medium & compared to my old old Topeak Einstein or something like that it's slow, a faff to get the hose attached & generally just not as brilliant.
It does however look really nice which is more important than anything of course.
Truflo Evolution plus here, fantastic, and not too expensive- the same pump crops up under other brands too. It's either a big mini pump or a tiny track pump, but either way it's small enough to just throw in a bag but big enough to pump up tyres quickly and easily. Which is exactly what a pump should do. No real reason to go smaller IMO, lots of people fixate on size but I don't think it makes any real difference. It also has a fairly inaccurate pressure gauge, which is better than nothing i guess- there's a version available without it. Just like a Mountain Morph, only tougher, cheaper and better in use.
I think the Lezynes's are beautifully made but not actually as well designed for pumping, which is kind of a downside.
Lezyne all the way. Get a mini though. Plenty pressure can get 100 psi in my road bike
Can't recomend it highly enough
Its tiny , looks good and packs plenty of power
Topeak Mountain Morph
CO2 FTW and my compressor at home. ๐
