+1 on the Zefal pumps for quality and reliability, although with the graphics and all they have kind of a modern look. I know they can be stripped and polished but that's a lot of work. I recently tried to get one powder coated along with a frame, but couldn't figure out how to get all the plastic bits off. The coater assured me they'd either melt or become fatally brittle in the oven so I nixed the idea.
