Which mini bike pump to buy?

[Anonymous1502]

I have been recommended to buy Lezyne mini bike pump, but I don't know which one to go for as there are so many on amazon. I want a high pressure bike pump for presta valve. Any help would be much appreciated.

Not sure what model of Leznye is the best one but they're mostly all good, and interchangeable between presta and schrader. (On nearly all models you unscrew the chuck and flip the washer adapter thing over to suit the valve). I've got a Topeak master blaster mini, they're good too.

(Although to be honest I hardly use a mini pump, to me they're emergency only - if this is for home use, get a track pump).

I only want one incase I get a puncture as track pumps are too large to carry.

Got it. Any mini pump from Lezyne or Topeak then, they're all perfectly fine for an emergency and all will handle either valve. Post here which ones you're looking at and you'll get some affirmation of your choice. Most should get a tyre up to 100psi.

Almost the same - Topeak pocket rockets on all 4 bikes, but just to get me home. A track pump for serious inflation.

This, get the medium one, small ones need more effort to get a decent amount of air in

have you figured out how to change the tube now, otherwise a pump is somewhat superfluous

This is the one you want.
Topeak road Morph. Like a small track pump, Flexible hose and a little foot stand. I have two of them, it can get to a high pressure easily and fits in your back pocket.

I bought one of these recently, rather cheap at below £35 inc. delivery. Nice clear LCD screen for what pressure you're at, internally stored hose so you don't damage the valve, and best of all it fits in your jersey pocket. I think RRP is about £70-80

Must be a small frame.

Mainly as I wanted a small backup for the tool bottle and this was one of the few that fitted (now use a saddle bag and fits in that) - always carry co2 so its a backup for that, and just wanted small and light.

I've had a Lezyne Road Drive for a long time (ten years?) and it's very good. It costs about £30 today unfortunately. There's a similar-looking Lezyne available for about £16 that might be worth a try.

Whatever you decide, get a pump with a flexible hose, not a fixed head, and save yourself a whole load of broken valve/ leaking grief.

Edit: This is the cheaper one that I've never tried....

I got an Airace Fit CNC when on offer. Normally around £17, I paid £3.99 for mine.

£40 for the medium road drive from Wiggle / CRC right now

90 psi max for the one you've linked...bet that takes a bit of effort with that little pump! Vs 160 for the road drive
