Inflates up to 300 PSI with little effort on your part. Pressure bleed valve protects against accidental negative pressure. Swivel hose helps you get around those tight spots and hard-to-reach valves. Aluminum and steel construction adds lightweight strength and durability.

Strengths:
Pumps Air.
Weaknesses:
Not accurate at all, Gauge is waaaaay off.
Similar Products Used:
Rock Shox pump
Bike Setup:
Marzocchi Marathon SL Fork 105mm pos and neg pressures needed
Bottom Line:
The 20psi it registered was a TRUE 50 psi when hooked up to another pump. The fork was buttery smooth like it was supposed to be at the TRUE 20psi. Gauge doesn't even show any psi when the Rock Shox showed 20psi. Pumps well, but gauge is crap and doesn't work at low pressure settings. No telling what my last fork was set up to. I could even use it if it would register 10psi at 20 so I have something to go off of, but it just says 0psi till there is at least 30psi in there. It's not even all that cheap either.

Strengths:
Does what it says it does. I have cranked this up to the 300 psi max.
Weaknesses:
Takes some effort to get it up past 200 psi.
Bottom Line:
After you get up past 180 psi you need to put some effort into it get any higher (in a big way). Nice bleed value so you can dial in just the right psi. Nice to have in the garage if you a mountain biker. Good value for the money.
