ARGH 7 Punctur*s - Pump Advice Required

[John the Monkey]

Surly LHT: Topeak Road Master Blaster - a full size frame pump, fits along the bottom of the top tube.
Giant SCR2.0 - Specialized Air Tool Road - cheap, very reliable, but presta only
In the Brompton bag: Topeak Road Morph G - mini track pump type - easily does road tyre pressure, nice guage, very reliable.

I also have the Top Peak Mini Master Blaster pump with gauge, it is an excellent little pump to use for punctures until I get home.

Your tyres aren't exactly puncture resistant ones. Surely you can find something more suited to your needs. Or find a different route.

You should try a bit of downhill riding...super good fun, plus the climb up is a fantastic workout.

Anyone tried the green gunk stuff? Might be worth trying if you get that many punctures.
