What track pump

stuisnew

Simple really, I need a track pump but have never had one before. Seen a few recommendations for topeak joe blows (of which there seems to be a myriad of different models). Anyone recommend a decent track pump for sensible sums of money (lower the better but sub £40)?

Thank you!

Blow Joe. Sport II I think - the yellow one. Fault less bar the shortish hose

Beto for under £20

I recommend This one. We use them in the shop and they usually last about 6-8 months doing an average of 24 tyres a day. We used to use the Joe Blow Sport 2s but found the plastic head inside them wore down very quickly and plus the short hose could not reach rear wheels when a bike was in a stand.
The Bikehut one above has a metal insert instead of plastic, and a 'smart head' that works for any type of valve without messing around with internals/separate heads. Also it's cheaper than most of the Joe Blows.

If its going to be used for inflating tubeless tyres then go for something that has a high volume output.

I personally use a Lyzne pump which works very nicely but I don't have anything else to compare it too so no idea if its value for money or not.

Thanks all, much appreciated.

If you havn't purchased one yet take a look at Blackburn's Air Towers - they come with a lifetime warranty so will hopefully be the last pump you buy. My last one did about 4 years, then a small valve broke inside - took it back to show, shabang, brand new pump for nowt.

Another vote for the Bikehut one. Excellent, robust bit of kit, great volume so quick to inflate and reliable.

i recommend the SKS aircon 6.0 great pump, shifts big volume of air for not a lot of effort, can even be used to seat tubless tyres, check out the review of it on here, plus you can get service parts for it
