Need your collective advise once again. I bought a used Fox F100X fork off of eBay and it didn't come with a pump. Do you guys have preference for a fork pump that is compatible with my fork?

I have one fox shock pump, one rock shox shock pump, and one off brand shock pump. They all seem the same to me.

Good, wasn't sure about compatibility. Over at the MTBR.com forum there are some Fox owner who claim the inner valve stem is too short for non-Fox pumps. Others claim to not have this problem.

I'll go pick up whatever I find over at LBS or at Mountain Equipment Coop.

I have used a fox pump on a Marzocchi, Fox, Rock Shox and White Brothers with no problem. The Marzocchi does require their (Marzocchi) adaptor though.
