Is there any good reason to get anything better than a joe blow sport III track pump?

[Time Waster]

Our Joe blow sport track pump, original version, died October last year so we're planning on replacing. Just so easier with a track pump. £36 for the current Joe blow sport pump so it's it really worth a silca, rennkompressor or lezyne? I'm thinking not. Apart from the air bleed buttons it's got what you need in a track pump I reckon. At this price I think it's good enough.

Spares are available for Joe Blow pump, only a few £?

Specialized track pumps are excellent, all metal construction and great quality, I’ve had mine for 14 years and it’s used regularly;

I got one from a charity shop for £4.00 and put the spring from a biro in the valve in the bottom and cleaned it up.

Had it a few years now and its good.

Nothing beats a good blow Joe.

No. I had an SKS Rennkompressor and it was nowhere near as good as a Joe Blow.

Thanks, Joe blow III is in the back of the van.

My last Joe blow just fell apart. Nothing worth fixing tbh. Lost parts I've no idea where they went.
