I have a steel lezyne floor drive. The screw on valve really is the best solution IMO, if the valve stems come out you just need to put some blue loc tite on them. The lezyne effortlessly cranks out PSI. Every other pump I've used feels feeble in comparison.
Really?!? Am I the only one that thinks that is a PITA? The Hirame blows it out of the water. Works on any stem, won't pull out the valve cores, you don't have to disassemble your valves and treat them over night before use, one handed use, can hold 220psi without popping off.....
