Pump for front suspension.

It just occured to me i dont have a shock pump and my bike never came with one.
Will be used on a rockshox sid.
Will a cheap one like this be ok? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Raleigh-MTB-M ... vi-content

Or anyone else got a recomendation of a pump? dont want to spend loads of money on one.

i guess so any shock pump should do, they all do the same job, but some are better than others.. rockshox pump is good and i always got on with the fox ones..

Looks a bit cheap (because it is) but will probably be fine.

If you want to play it safe, I have Halfords own shock pump - £20 - works fine, does the job, hasn't broken yet.

I've the same pump branded as Beto and it's been fine. For the money it's a good buy.

Yeah - got the same one. Works well

If it's just for the front you really want one with lower pressure reading, like this http://www.merlincycles.com/bike-shop/a ... -pump.html

felix.london

huh? That Low Pressure one only goes upto 100psi. I've got nearly 100psi in my forks and I weigh 72kg. For someone bigger (or someone that just wants very firm forks) that would be useless

It's a decent pump. Most of the branded ones are just rebranded Betos or similar.

This one gets a good write up in what mountain bike and is the unbranded version. And its on offer...

It's mine :-)

I belive the seller is actually a Nigerian con man pretending to be a wurzel.
