Lezyne Pressure Drive

Top Pro

Easily inflates even high-pressure tires

Hand-held pumps often struggle to inflate high pressure tires, but the Lezyne Pressure Drive makes it easier than any other hand-held pump. Inflating 90 PSI tires with hand-held pumps is still more difficult than automatic pumps, because of the lack of leverage, but for commuters the Lezyne makes it as painless as possible. See More

Top Con

Doesn't have a gauge to check tire pressure

A gauge is useful for checking the pressure in your tires, and the Lezyne Pressure Drive does not have one. However, you can purchase their Lezyne Pen Gauge separately, and it can be incorporated into the medium sized Pressure Drive pump. See More

Specs

Weight:0.2 lbs

Type:Hand pump

Max pressure:120 PSI 8.3 bar

Built-in gauge:No

See All Specs

Top Pro

Guaranteed to avoid leaks

The hose on this pump screws on instead of clamping, so you won't have to clamp and re-clamp the hose every time just to make sure there are no air leaks. See More

Top Pro

Durable

The Lezyne is made from aluminum, no plastic parts at all. It also has a 2 year warranty, and it's built to be repairable, so even if something does go wrong, you won't have to throw the whole thing out and spend money on another one. See More

Top Pro

Comfortable to use either valve

This pump has two ends, one for Schneider and one for presta valves. This is a really great design feature, because you don't have to fidget with small parts to change the type of valve you need. See More

Topeak Road Morph G mini pump

Top Pro

Easily inflates all tire types

This pump can inflate a road tire (90psi) in about 60 strokes (1 minute), and can easily deal with mountain or hybrid tires as well. It has a foldout footpad, which stabilizes the pump on the ground, and a T handle so you can have more leverage while using it. See More

Top Con

You have to bend low to use it

The Road Morph sets up like a mini floor pump, which means it's much shorter than a full-size floor pump. So, in order to use it, you'd have to stay bent over quite low for some time until you inflate your tire, which can be annoying. See More

Specs

Top Pro

Easy to transport

This pump comes with a mounting bracket, so you can attach it to the top tube of your bike, without occupying the space you'd leave for a water bottle. It weighs 0.49 lbs, which won't add much weight to what you're already carrying. See More

Top Con

Footpad not as stable as you'd expect

The footpad feels a bit flimsy, you might even have to use both feet to really get it to stand solidly. See More

Top Pro

Monitor pressure with the built-in gauge

The Road Morph has a built-in gauge, which will help you determine how much more you need to pump. If you need and use the gauge to monitor air pressure, it's worth the extra bulk. See More

Bontrager Turbo Charger

Top Pro

A great floor pump for use at home or in the garage

This pump has a reliable head that seals without fidgeting, it's comfortable to use. It's also durable and is likely to last a long time. It's great for use at home or in the garage, since it's not small or compact enough to be transported easily on your bike. See More

Top Con

Can not be easily taken with you

This is a full size floor pump, which is meant to be used in one place (like a bike shop, or your garage or house). If you need something to take along with you on your rides in case of flats, you'd probably need a portable hand-held pump, or a mini floor pump. See More

Type:Floor pump

Built-in gauge:Yes

Max pressure:160 psi 11bar

See All Specs

Top Pro

Easily inflates all tire types

This pump has an auto-select head, which will fit both Presta and Shnader valves without you having to manually swap between them. With a max pressure of 160 psi and the ergonomic design, this pump makes inflating even high-pressure tires easy. See More

Top Pro

Has a head that seals valves on the first try every time

The Bontrager Turbo Charger HP has a clamp design that seals every both Presta and Schrader valves on the first try, which is really rare for non-screw heads. See More

Top Pro

Very comfortable to use

The Turbo Charger HP has a stable triangular base, which keeps it from rocking as you pump your tires. It also has an extra long hose (54 inches) which allows for plenty of reach in a crowded garage. The padded T shped handles are easy on you hands, and it's also quite long for a pump, so you don't have to be bend over awkwardly to use the pump. See More

Top Pro

Has a gauge that's easy to read due to it's placement

Most pumps with a gauge have it near the base, which would require extra movement for you to be able to make out what it says. The Bontrager has it positioned right at the handle, so you can pump and monitor air pressure at the same time. See More

Top Pro

Has sturdy parts that will last or that can be easily replaces

Though the head is in plastic casing, everything else on this pump is made of good quality metal. It's likely to last past the 2 year warranty, but if something does wear out before it's time (like the head or the hose seals), it can be easily replaced. See More
