Sooo.. I'm looking for a small pump to carry in a jersey pocket, or strapped to the bike (carbon Felt Z6).

Any recomendations? I need to try and buy one online today as it's my birthday pressie from the folks. Budget between 20 and 30 quid. Prob hand poump and not CO2.

Thank you!!

    Sometimes parts break. Sometimes you crash. Sometimes it’s your fault.

    Get one with a flexi neck - not one that attaches straight to the valve.
    And get one that is capable of a higher pressure than you require (most of them these days I think)

    I use a Lezyne one, but when my wife bought one for hers the LBS recommended a Topeak one. I've had cause to use both - pretty much of a muchness TBH ... the only downside I've got for it is that you can't tell what pressure you've pumped too - so it's a guess.

    Are there any fun Wiggle discount codes around at the moment?

    I prefer the Topeak Road Morph, I can get 120psi out of that baby without too much hassle, no limping home with a saggy back tyre for me

    Exactly 'Not Quite' is my choice (and I have used 'End of Thread')

    This,

    I use the Edinburgh Co-Op version, it wont fit in your pocket but will strap to your frame. And i can get 120+psi with my t-rex arms no problem
