Hi guys my mini pump failed last week :( all my vintage kit is dying.
I'm after a good value for money mini pump. Not looking for bling just guaranteed to be pulled out of the pack and work

Leyzene mini pump the one with the removable valve tube , saves you bending the tyre valve.. Remi had one on Sunday and I have the same one as well... It's a small pump but very good

I'd definitely recommend Lezyne pumps. The best hand pump in my opinion.

If you want a cheap but very good, halfords dual action pump is very good.

Lezyene seem a bit fiddly for cold wet hands. my last few have clipped straight on and I've had the Mammoth for many moons.

I would go with Ian's recommendation over the Lezyne, i have one and the flexi tube gave way due to heat build up.
Also the lezyne one rattles like fuck, i had to put insulating tape on various parts to stop the constant jangling

Andy, those pumps are not designed to blow up rubber dolls mate.

The topeak one that folds out into a mini track pump is awesome. good volume so you dont spend ages pumping up a 2.3 or whatever...

thinki its a mountain morph
