a good pump

I like the track pump type like this Topeak mountain model, easy to use like a stirrup pump yet compact and light. I'm afraid it has the push connector, I can't remember the last time I saw a screw-on, it was so long ago.
Here's the Topeak fitted on a bike with their quick-detach slide on fixing:

Hi Grey,
I have been using this item from 'Crank Brothers' for some years now.
Crank Brothers Power Pump Ultralight Compact Pump: Amazon.co.uk: Sports & Outdoors
I think I paid £12 for mine, but it has a 2 stage pump which works very well. It's only about 5 inches long and has proved robust and effective. It's not a screw on type, but the valve clamp works well and it is ergonomically nice to use as you can brace it firmly against the spokes.
It will inflate a flat tyre to about 25 psi in less than a minute on a 26" MTB tyre.
It has also saved my neck on a motorcycle tyre. Good kit, easy to use. Fits in a trouser pocket.
Hope you're getting some in with all the sunshine.

Excuse me young man, is that a Crank Brothers Compact Ultralite, or are you just pleased to see me?
Hi Guys

My goodness Gray198,
You should certainly be a hit with the ladies with one of those in your pocket.

I thought I was being quite conservative actually!
