Mini Pump
I'm looking to buy a mini pump that is small enough to fit in a jersey
pocket or a saddle bag and be able to pump up to 100 psi. Would you recommend a CO2 or a regular one? What brand and model? I'm looking for reliability and ease of use. Thanks, Jiyang Chen |

Why not both? http://www.innovationsaz.com/INmain....egor y=hybrid Thanks, Jiyang Chen -- Rick Onanian |

I'm looking for reliability and ease of use. I would suggest a regular one. I don't like the idea of running out of CO2 right when I need it most. |

Thanks, Jiyang Chen crank brothers makes a very good, compact size pump that will pump up to 100 + easily and will fit entirely in a jersey pocket. |

How many punctures do you usually get at once? Pete |

... Ok. I have decided I want a regular one because I don't want to run out of CO2, nor do I want to carry extra cartridges when I get 2 or more flats. I don't want to spend any more than $15 on one. I bought a Blackburn pump, Tuesday night, for $14.95 and it seems to work pretty good. It works with both valve types so I can use it with both of my bicycles. |
