Bike pump

trek2300

Having trouble getting air in my tires and was wondering what is a decent pump with pressure gauge that would be reliable. Tures are 700 x 23 with presta valves

any advise would be helpful

many thanks

Any track pump I have a Jo Blow which is yellow so clearly faster/better but realisticly any track pump £20/£30 ish

For on the bike use,Lezyne Micro-Drive HP is the dog's dinglies IME - one of the few portable pumps worth carrying.

A home, as Roger said, any track pump, the most popular seems to be Jo Blow, I have the Beto Alloy Track Pump from Argos which works well and was well reviewed on Bike Radar.

For on the bike I prefer CO2 -

Donkeywings

I have this

This is the US link but you can get it in the UK. It mounts behind a waterbottle butt, and can carry 2 CO2 carts. I've never had to bother with the CO2 as it can get the tyre to around 100psi in only a minute or so just manual pumping. It does higher pressures than the cheap track pump I bought from Lidl.

Cupras

Halfords had some good offers on track pumps the other day just don't buy the bike hut one apparently its crap.

Druidor

As said a decent track pump at home and I have a CO2 inflator in the saddle bag with a large cartridge in the handle that will inflate the tyre to full preasure (Ebay £25 with 4 cartridges)
