Strengths: Looks nice, and it's a bit easier to pump than those minis. The cord is this pump's biggest advantage.Weaknesses: All plastic construction, what?! Rubber bands to secure the pump to my frame? (Both snapped within a week.) The cord is way too short, and the part that attaches to the valve is extremely bulky, due mostly to the pressure gauge included ON the pump head.Bottom Line: Save your money.

Strengths: Gauge, possible easier than mini pump, cheapWeaknesses: Heavy long not real easy to use. O ring slipped and had to repair it later at home thought it broke.Bottom Line: I thought I'd review it again as it failed on me when the o ring slipped at about 80 psi out on the road, thought it was broke for good on about my 6th use of this pump. Pushed back the o ring that had slipped and appears to be working for now. So much for German engineering.

Strengths: The morph feature is nice and it is shorter than the Topek model. Nice gage.Weaknesses: Band strap to hook on frame will one day break will I notice the pump falling on the trail? Not nearly as easy to use as a floor pump.Bottom Line: Not a bad pump I've only used it once and can see that this is no replacement for my floor pump. Could have a better strap to mount it to the frame, but this rubber band deal seems to be the norm on several pumps. I am very curious on how this compares with the Topeak Morph. It is shorter so it should fit in ones Camelbak much easier, I believe it is slightly heaver than the Topeak. Better than a mini but not as good as a floor. I will do a follow up review when I get more use out of it.
