Which pump?

I have been using the Lezyne Pocket drive for a few years now, and I like it a lot. Better than the Road Drive I used earlier, mainly because it is even smaller. I wouldn't use it for big volume tyres, but for 28-30mm it works well enough.

Comes with a clip to attach it to the bottle cage mounts, should you want to.

One thing, though, with Presta valves is to make sure the valve cores are screwed in tightly, or they're liable to unscrew with the pump hose after you've just done a few hundred strokes or so. That gets old pretty quickly.

I mostly keep mine with my tools and spare tube under my saddle.

I was about to list a Lezyne Micro Drive pump in the classifieds if anyone is interested? It’s the original model which has a gauge and can easily do over 100psi. Was thinking £35 delivered.

So am I, I would love to find a peg type frame pump something like the one that my Carlton used to sport in its youth. Somehow it escaped when I was pressing on when I was about 16, went under the back wheel and collected a bend in the alloy. It was alloy with a red blue and white stripe. However it was only really good for about 60psi, I would prefer a bit higher.
