    Yup, I've got one of those and have no problems with it. I wanted a pump small enough it wouldn't annoy me carrying it everywhere in my shoulder bag. 80 psi with it is no problem.

    I have one, relied on it for all my pumping needs until I got my new track pump this weekend. It seems to do the job.

    I Wouldn't bother with something like CO2 cartridges for punctures, unless you are competing - I don't like consumables when you don't need to.
    I like bikes...

    Can't fault mine at all.
  • I have used one of these for a few years. 80psi is relatively easy to achieve. I have managed to get a tyre to 100psi which was rather time consuming. As the inner tube had just failed with a loud bang I had a surfeit of adrenaline in my system. So five minutes pumping the tyre up calmed me down :D
  • Yep. Great pump. Can't go wrong.

    Excellent pump. It is just small enough to fit into my saddle bag, leaving more space for food in jersey pockets :D
