A new track pump. Mine is noodled, and non-rebuildable. Not buying another Specialized one.

What about one of these? http://www.parker-international.co.uk/9 ... r=bikepimp in my experience Blackburn are pretty good.

Interesting.

Looking at CRC, I see this:-

Now, SKS always used to be pretty good. But this is **very** cheap.

Also, if they stay true to form from the other two purchases I made from them, I'll probably get a Renkompressor sent by accident.

Has anyone ever tried one of these?

Can't complain about my Topeak Joe blow, have heard the spesh ones is good as well as the SKS. Whatever you do I'd go for one with a gauge.

Chris, after 20 years of pissing about with mini-pumps I've finally bought a track pump - a Lezyne Classic and I'm chuffed to bits with it; all alloy/steel construction with a lovely wooden handle -the quality is fab, and it works a treat... £38 posted from Tredz, quite dear for a pump, but it looks like a last-a-lifetime bargain to me.

Tesco, with gauge, about £15.

Or Lidl/Aldi when they have them or if any are still around.

No idea of quality, but there is not much to a track pump really, since my something or other make is still running fine after ~16 years then I would assume a Tesco one should be pretty similar.

That looks a good deal!
SKS's workshop pump was quality and had spares available -i'd like to think that this is just more basically engineered but similarly reliable..
- The 86 max psi isn't that reassuring though... :?

Had a Lidls one for 3 years now and it has been abused and still works mostly. When I say abused I mean I brought it for Lawnmower racing so it get left in a muddyfield and out in the rain not tucked away in the garage all the time.
