Hiya, my joeblow sport's valve has broken after only 2 months of easy use, which is very disappointing as it was great until it broke so I'm looking for a new pump. I'm willing to spend up to £50 if I have to but would rather spend less. What are your recommendations? Ideally I would like a high volume one for tubeless set up, etc, but most importantly I want one that will last a long long time. Thanks

    Had a Bontranger Charger for 2 years now, still working brilliantly
    Fits both valves and I've used it to go tubeless

    It seems to be no longer available but I'd recommend Bontranger pumps

    So take it back - two months it will be still under warranty.

    I've sent it back for monetary refund, as I don't want to have a second one break...

    Bought one of these a while back http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/lezy ... -prod36286

    Difficult to get too enthusiastic about a floor pump but it is rather nice and works well. Good adaptors too. The only minor drawback is that it goes up to 220 psi so for MTB tyres 20-30 psi is right down the one end of the scale and for its size it doesn't move a great deal of air per pump.

    Easy to do bar spins with the handle though

    I've got three Beto pumps, ranging from cheap (£15?) to expensive (for Beto £20 odd) all work fine and have for years. The pricier one has a wooden handle etc, and works best - I use it on the car as well.

    Any Lezyne HV (high volume) series pump.

    I have a Lezyne pump which I'm very happy with. Had it about 5 years and its still working just the same. My friend has a similar one but a high volume one and it is noticeably easier to get tubeless tyres to inflate and get the bead seated.

    cqc - if warrenty fails or is too much bother, they have mostly have universal hose attachments - so you can just change that.

    I've just found the lenzyne classic dirt dive pump which looks great. Any thoughts?
