from SoCal Date Reviewed: December 19, 2011 Strengths: This pump delivers lots of air in a short time and having a foot peg makes the difference when you're pumping up large volume MTB tubeless tires out on the trail. You're simply able to put lots of force behind the stroke when you can stabilize the pump like you're accustomed to doing at home with your floor pump and push straight down using your weight. Weaknesses: The foot peg pin promptly worked loose, but I replaced it with a galvanized nail cut and peened to keep it in place and it's worked fine ever since. The only other minor quibble is the pump's size. While it isn't an issue with larger hydration packs, I haven't risked putting it in a Camelbak Lobo's pump side pocket, for example, because it's long enough to potentially fall out on rough stretches, like where I've found other people's pumps. On the other hand, the pump's size directly correlates with how it functions, so I can live with that. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Noble Canyon Duration Product Used: More than 3 years Bike Setup: It has air in the tires that sometimes has to be replaced.

from Overland Park, KS Date Reviewed: August 30, 2011 Strengths: Powerful, t-handle and foot brace are great. Weaknesses: The stiff rubber in the valve that seals on the valve stem makes it initially very difficult to attach and air up the tires. Once you figure out how to do it and practice a few times it becomes easier. Rather big.

from Sunnyvale Date Reviewed: April 23, 2011 Strengths: Can pump a lot of air fast. Works well if you have all the parts. Weaknesses: The pump valve cap fell off while riding, and now the pump is useless b/c there are no spare parts available. The plastic piece that holds the hose end on also broke.

from Baton Rouge, LA, United States Date Reviewed: October 27, 2010 Strengths: Compact, mounts easily, nearly effortless to use when compared with most frame pimps Weaknesses: The chuck on the pump's tube lost the ability to clamp onto the valve stem after only 4 uses! Ended up having to push my bike 3 miles home when the chuck couldn't hold the valve stem tight enough to pump enough pressure into the tire to ride on a rough bike trail! It did pump it enough to make pushing far easier than pushing a flat tire! But not-quite enough to ride on without risking a pinch-flat!Since the chuck wouldn't clamp onto the valve stem; once the pressure was high enough to support the weight of the bike, the chuck would jump off of the stem! If I had a rubber band in my pocket, I might have been able to tie it down tight enough to keep it on long enough to get enough pressure to ride home! Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Hooper Road Park Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Price Paid: $30.00 Purchased At: Mid City Bikes Similar Products Used: I've replaced it with a Lezyne that should function similarly except for a chuck that threads onto the valve stem!

from Scottsdale,AZ USA Date Reviewed: April 5, 2010 Strengths: Hose-so it is less likely to break a presta valve. Foot peg-to make it easier to pump. Weaknesses: Foot peg broke off on 3rd use- Topeak was NO HELP !!! Demanded a receipt before they would replace the foot peg ! Take note ! The foot peg is an ill-designed chintzy piece of plastic with the durability of a Ritz saltine cracker !!! Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 1 Year Purchased At: 30.00 Similar Products Used: Blackburn pump-flawless operation. but alas, no hose, resulting ina broken presta valve on a new tube. Hence, my ill-advised Topeak purchase ! Bike Setup: Blur, minute 2 fork, Cane Creek wheels, Fox r. shock.

from Middle WA Date Reviewed: March 10, 2010 Strengths: Fills the tire every time- no hassles, no twiddling, no breaking off stems, no worries. Weaknesses: Heavy. The foot feels flimsy and the locking ring to hold the handle broke when I dropped it on a hard tile floor (DUH). Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Church O' Taneum Duration Product Used: 2 Years Similar Products Used: Hand pumps that sucked for not being able to get on the stem easily, taking forever to pump from a contortionist's position, not filling up large tires very well. CO2 cartridges that blew off just trying to get them on the chuck, leaving me with a big hollow chunk of worthless metal to pack back along with the bike. Bike Setup: Multiple bikes with tires.
