Hi
As i have 2 bottle cages in the normal spots on my bike, i have been looking for a pump i can attach to my top bar safely without fear of it falling out as i go over bumps.
Any suggestions?

That thought has crossed my mind, i was wondering if there was anything out there that has a mount sturdy enough to deal with it being placed upside down so to speak.Bike - Scott Aspect 45

don't understand why having two bottle cages precludes you from having a pump, my Lezyne road drive mounts fit under the bottle cage? It's also the best mini pump for road bikes IMO

Find co2 much less hassle than a pump...0

In the olden days we'd all have frame pumps under the top tube - but that needs a brazing on the frame for security.
Get the lezyne pump for your waterbottle cage.
Co2 is expensive and no use if you get multiple flats.0 -
My Topeak Road Morph comes with a mounting bracket that has a velcro strap which holds the pump securely. I have it on the seat-tube where it takes the place of a bottle cage, but it also came with cable ties for mounting beneath the top tube, which is an option I might use next summer as I think I'll be needing 2 bottles. Topeak do a pretty good range of spares so you might be able to buy the bracket separately0

I have heard the Lezyne being mentioned before, i think i will go for that. Reason being (and not so suprisingly) the one from Wilkos is pretty poor, the mounting for it is poor. Thanks all for your advice!Bike - Scott Aspect 45
