For those who own the Axiom streamliner rack

How do I make use of the pump pegs on the left side of the rack?

I'm also wandering this very same thing. Surely there must be a pump made to fit these dimensions??

Otherwise I'll rig something up.

I emailed them asking what pump fit there. No response so far.

Let me know if you figure something out.

Anyone know where I can find one of these racks in silver with the attachments to mount directly to frame braze-ons, as pictured? As shown in the photo, they supposedly come in silver, but I have not been able to find a dealer in the US who carries them. If they have the Axiom Streamliner, it is black and/or made to mount to caliper brake bolts. It looks like a nice rack for the money, but I don't want a black one.

The length between the pegs is 9 1/4 inches or 235mm. I've been through every online catalog I can find. At this point I'm thinking of rigging up a tube that I can keep repair stuff in. Going up to lowes to see what I can find. I'll just go with my water cage mount for the time being.

The Zefal Lapize is available ina 250mm size, I'd guess that the handle is spring loaded like peg-mount pumps of old and would compress at least 15mm to fit (this keeps it under tension so it won't shake loose). The Zefal 800 is available in 8 sizes, but I haven't been able to find a list of them. Lezyne makes a couple pumps on the 9.5" range that look like they'd work, but I'm not sure of the handle would be spring loaded since they come with a waterbottle mount, but here's a link to one on that size anyway.

I can only find the Lapiz on the other side of the pond. And even then, reviews tend to be rather poor. I'm going to rig up a "pod" or rather a tube that will be held in place by the pegs. Said tube will be used to stash emergency gear, spare tubes, patch kit, etc. I plan to patent it and make a bazillion dollars, MWAAHHAAHAAAA!!

A pump there is *very* well-placed to fall into the wheels. I wouldn't do it.
