....and no before you say it, it isnt up my obvious!

i used to own a bonty track pump, a good one as well and the last time i have it was in may and i just cant find it anywhere, it has literally disappeared. grrrr

I would like to buy a gucci leyzne one but cant justify the cash and have no idea if they are actually any good!?

    I've got the mini pump and it's well gucci

    I have been known to break bottles on the trailside and then ride over them repeatedly so I can mend them and blow them up with my cristal of pumps.

    it's well nang.

    also it's clearly superior in functionality to cheaper pumps and those who suggest otherwise are jealous.

    My mini-ish-pump is a Serfas, and I've never had a problem with it, honestly.

    silliness aside, it's just a reasonably well executed mini pump. Quite light, works well, worth the money? Not sure. I think I've seen tests in WMB and MBUK where it comes out well in terms of how quickly it can pump up a tyre but tbh not sure how important that is.

    What I do like is the hose which has presta at one end and schraeder at the other as opposed to one where you switch bits around in the head. That's a very minor detail but one that I like.

    They do one where you can also use it with CO2 cylinders but I don't have that model.

    Hose? Screw that.
    My ancient serfas just works. Whack it ona valve, and it does the rest for you. No fiddling, no different attatchments.

    I find Topeak to be a chepaer, equally well made, albeit less pretty version of lezyne (Some of their new ones are blatant rip offs)

    I like hoses as weel as I tend to get somewhat agressive and have ripped tubes apart with my vigourous pumping. Therefore something that isolates my pumping is useful...

    That doesn't surprise me, they usually stick with what they're used to.
