The Blackburn AT-1 featured a bombproof steel barrel and all-new reinforced nylon base that's 240% stiffer than it's predecessor. Add a new ergonomic T-handle that has integrated storage drawers on both ends and you have a versatile and functional floor pump.

Bottom Line:
I bought this because I was in desparate need of a pump and no bike shops were open on Sunday. Sports Authority had the whole Blackburn line. I was skeptical, so I bought the cheapest. It is the best pump I have ever owned.

Strengths:
Cheap, lightweight, lifetime warranty.
Weaknesses:
Valve broke already. Not sealing out other port, so air just goes right out. Storage caps also broke. Guage is not accurate.
Bike Setup:
Trek Ex-8
Bottom Line:
This is an okay pump for the cost. I called the company and they are sending me a replacement valve, although I would probably spend a little extra and get a better quality pump.

Strengths:
Great floor pump for the money. Seemed to rival others in the $29-$39 range. Very durable with cool slider out drawers in the handle for needles, adapters, etc. Comfy handle, and can do both Presta and Schrader.
Weaknesses:
Not sure how durable this will be for the long hull. I had a Performance Bike pump in this quality range, actually not quite as good as this one, for several years, so I am confident this will last for at least that long if not more.

Bottom Line:
Great value if you can find it for, or under, $20. Otherwise get the model 2 for $10 more which has a heavier tube.
