But attach to bike, not in pocket where it could impale you if you come off

NOT Lezyne from me. I have had a track stand and a mini floor pump malfunction and their after sales care/warranty is rubbish.

I’ll be buying Topeak from now on. I had a track pump that lasted nearly 15 years before the rubber seals dried out. I also have a micro pump which broke (valve) which they replaced with no quibble. That be goes in my jersey pocket. I think it’s called a pocket rocket or similar.

The small or the medium?
I have the medium. It worked fine the couple of times I’ve had to use it
A topeak one I had before was crap. I don’t like the ones that push onto the valve...I like the little hose on the Lezyne (but not with awful Continental tubes with flying valves)

When my old Topeak Micro Pocket Rocket failed reviews of it lacking a hose (snapping stems) put me off getting another, so I went Lezyne which had positive reviews. The first (a Lite Drive IIRC) was a disaster, more powerful than the topeak for a similar size and also marketed as a pocket pump but after a month or two the plastic leyzyne pump lost pressure in its barrel and refused to pump. I replaced it with the slightly heavier/bigger pressure drive and touch wood I have never had a problem with that but in hindsight my topeak never broke a stem in 10 + years and whilst slower to pump was faster to attach and I should have got another.

Topeak Pocket Rocket for me. Had it about 7 years.
Not brilliant, tbh. But does the job - just.
It doesn't have a flexible hose, so there's a risk of damaging the valve core.
And I can just about get 60psi into the tyre with it, which is enough to get me home (tyres are 700c x 25, and I normally run them at 95 psi). I would prefer to be able to get 80 - 90psi at the roadside.
If I wasn't so tight I would probably look to upgrade to something the previous posters are recommending :smile:
